I have been a caretaker as early as I can remember. I started babysitting for children in my neighborhood in middle school. I went to college and obtained my degree in Early Childhood Education. I raised three daughters of my own. The majority of my jobs over the past twenty five years have been caring for young children. I have acquired some great experience and lessons over the years. My strengths are my patience and reliability. I love singing and reading to children. Taking long nature walks is one of my favorite activities to share with children.

Hi! I'm Iggy. I've worked as a babysitter, nanny, after school counselor, and outdoor education instructor. I'm a certified lifeguard, CPR/first-aid trained, and I have my youth mental health first aid certification. I have experience with ages 1-18, and have experience working with children with mental and physical disabilities. I'm new to the Champaign-Urbana area and would love to connect with some local families! My favorite part of working with kids is helping them embrace their creativity and curiosity. I love finding what kiddos love to do and supporting them in it, whether it's building a pillow fort, reading aloud together, or playing outside. I respect the intelligence and independence of the kids I work with, and try to provide gentle, discovery-based guidance when needed. P.S. I used to work at an animal shelter and my house is basically a menagerie at any given time, so pets are a bonus and I'd love to help care for them as well!

I have been babysitting on and off since I was 14! I have watched all age groups and have helped out friends of my parents, teachers, and people who just genuinely need a sitter last minute. I love kids and I love working with kids. I am a college student and have always worked. Helping out with kids has always been something I loved so when parents need a helping hand i’m willing to do so. I am very flexible and I do work another job but it is also very flexible.

I have my CDA, Paraprofessional certification, & CPR certification. I have worked in daycare settings, school settings, & home based babysitting. I have references as well. I have experience with children with developmental issues, disabilities, & behavioral issues. I worked for “Circle academy.” Which is a school for children with behavioral issues & other disabilities.

I love being with babies and children, working with them, and watching them grow. I am a local therapist (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) in private practice who is looking to diversify and add childcare back to part of my work routine. I spent many years working as an infant nanny prior to becoming a therapist, and I have extensive experience caring for kids of all ages in a variety of capacities. I am flexible, reliable, patient, caring, and committed to nurturing kids and helping them grow and learn.

I’m a senior at UIUC studying engineering and have been babysitting since high school. I’m looking for a consistent position but am also available for occasional help when parents need a night out. I’m reliable, patient, and enjoy creating a fun, safe environment for kids. I also have tutoring experience with kids as young as 5 years old.

Hi everyone! I recently graduated from University of Illinois in December and I'm looking for babysitting and nannying jobs during the upcoming spring semester (January 19-May 16). I won't be taking classes, so my schedule will be very open and I can accommodate a variety of days and times. I love working with kids and have been babysitting since I was 12! For the past 4 years, I also coached gymnastics and diving with kids ages 2-16. Additionally, I have a reliable car to help out with any drop-off or pick-ups! Please reach out if you have any questions!
