Find experienced babysitters in Sheridan, IL

I am an enthusiastic sitter looking to spend my summer (and potentially long term) caring for a loving family! I have worked as an assistant teacher in a local Montessori school for the past three years where my love of childcare has grown into a passion for creating and cultivating an environment of developmentally appropriate play and activities. It is my goal to lead and love well, and as a sitter I value both play and intentionality. Outside of my time in the classroom I have 4+ years of experience babysitting/nannying. A little about me :) I would consider myself a fun loving and creative person and enjoy spending most of my time outdoors. In my free time I am stoked about travel, music festivals, playing guitar and film photography. I have an old english sheepdog who is my best buddy. And I am very passionate about my faith. I would love to answer any questions and provide references if you think I may be a good fit for your family!! -mia

Hi, my name is Sierra, I’m 23 and I am hoping to find a fun, loving family to babysit for. I worked at Altitude Trampoline Park and played with and made sure kids were safe. I also work at a dance studio with kids from 2-15 years old.

Hi! I have a 8 month old baby boy and a little dog. We read books and play everyday. I have board games, I have coloring pages with crayons, and I have arts and crafts. I have my CPR/AED/FirstAid certification, and I have a bunch of Firstaid supplies. We will have fun and be responsible!

As a doctoral student wanting to specialize in children and adolescent mental health, I’m especially passionate about supporting kids in a way that helps them feel safe, understood, and encouraged. I have experience caring for children through both paid and volunteer roles, where I’ve helped with supervising playtime, assisting with homework, preparing meals, and maintaining structured routines. I’m comfortable working with different age groups and adapting to each child’s individual needs. I bring strong communication, responsibility, and time-management skills, along with a calm and reliable presence. My clinical training has strengthened my ability to be attentive, patient, and responsive, allowing me to create a positive and supportive environment for every child I work with. *Willing to provide CV/Resume upon request for transparency.
