Tessa W., Babysitter in Stanford, IL 61774 with 8 years of paid experience

Hi families! My name is Tessa and I am going into my junior year in college at Illinois State, where I major in elementary education, with an endorsement in ESL. I have 8+ years of babysitting experience with ages 6 months-12 years. On top of babysitting, I also work in home health care as a caregiver, so I have genuine passion for taking care of others. I have a car, so I am able to run errands and help with transportation needs. When I am not working I love to be outside and cook! Feel free to contact me with any additional questions or references!

Kira  ., Babysitter in Stanford, IL 61774 with 14 years of paid experience

I love being a sitter because I enjoy working with children and helping the learn new things. One thing I enjoy helping a child learn is how to practice math facts by making a game out of it. The experience I have is by working with another parent who was also a sitter I was was watching the group of 5 and 6 year Olds and we were playing a game that was a math game and just seeing there faces when they were learning a new skill was heart warming to me.

Sarah W., Babysitter in Stanford, IL 61774 with 10 years of paid experience

Hi, my name is Sarah. I have been working with children in various ways for several years now. My background is in elementary education with an ESL endorsement. However, I've worked in an early education center, first, as a preschool teacher, and then a toddler teacher. I have also worked as a child entertainer at Great Wolf Lodge. I am currently going to ISU for communication sciences and disorders with the goal of being a speech therapist. With my education and experience, I know different ways to help your kiddos grow. I can help children work on their regular math and reading, and I can also help to advance their social and emotional health. I have worked with all ages, so I am excited to potentially get to help more children grow and develop. That is my passion. I am hoping to find a family who can be flexible with my school schedule. I am also available for night and weekend care. Please contact me with any questions.

Deidre K., Babysitter in Stanford, IL 61774 with 12 years of paid experience

I am currently a Behavior Technician at a School of Autism in Bloomington IL - Excel Prep. My name is Deidre, my friends call me "Deej". I am of mature age (44) and have served as a full-time Nanny to two school aged children, a Spanish Teacher for Chicago Public Schools and a Lead Caregiver for Infants culminating in twelve years experience working with children. Most of my life has been spent as a Professional Culinary Artist. In time, my love for children superseded my desire to feed groups of people and I decided to switch gears to return to my first love - that of feeding little minds instead. My role at Excel Prep is both fulfilling and rewarding. I aspire to continue to grow in the field of childhood learning and development. My favorite pastime is Creative Writing. Thai is my favorite cuisine. Passion fruit or Guava anything is my favorite flavor and lastly helping others brings me joy like no other!

Mary E., Babysitter in Stanford, IL 61774 with 30 years of paid experience

I am a nurturing and fun child care provider that believes that children thrive in an environment which they feel is safe to explore and accepted unconditionally for their uniqueness. I have always loved caring for children. I started at 12, provided babysitting services for family, friends, and my teachers until leaving for college. I have earned an elementary education degree and am continually taking additional training as required by DCFS to maintain my license to operate my in-home daycare. I have raised 3 children of my own and been a part of many other children’s lives in the nearly 27 years of running my own in home childcare. Before that I was an infant room teacher and assistant director at a daycare facility. I enjoy many types of music, poetry, quilts and hosting gatherings at my home for my family.
