Punctual kind and strong communication prior to the sitting, Rayne provided a seamless experience watching our 1.5 year old sleep while parents had a little date night. Can’t wait to have her back soon.

Janice was very sweet and my little ones really liked her. She was also very flexible when I came home significantly later than planned. I would definitely use her again.

*I AM CURRENTLY IN Chicago IL * Hello! my name is Angelajoy and I have my Bachelors of Arts in English and currently getting my masters in Data Analytics while working as an accountant/bookkeeper. I'm a great sitter because I'm flexible. I have worked with children of different ages. I am available when needed and always ready to show up for the kids. I am calm and sensitive. I believe possessing those traits are essential to be able to connect with the children on a mental and emotional level. Being consistent and trustworthy is key to building a relationship with not only the kids but also the parents. I am able to do my job well because i believe in genuinely caring about the children more than anything else on the job. I am excited to work with a fun and enthusiastic family!

Mrs. Avis is wonderful. After a bad experience with a sitter I hired here she gave me hope that there are some good, caring, responsible caregivers out there. My 8 month old took to her very well. We will definitely be keeping her on speed dial.

Hello my name is Taya , I’m 24 years old and I’m interested in being your sitter. I have 9 years experience with babysitting and child care ,which I was an after school sitter for several different families, for children from pre-school through the 7th grade. I have about 4 years experience working with children who have autism and/or a special disability. I babysit ages anywhere from infant to 13 years old. i have exactly 5 years experience with newborns-3 year olds. I absolutely love being around children and they LOVE being around me. They just bring absolute joy to my heart. I absolutely LOVE the outdoors. I am CPR certified ,I know basic Sign language and basic Spanish, I also have my own car and a clean driving record. I am very caring ,loving, trustworthy, patient and outgoing and love doing different activities that children will find entertaining and enjoy doing. Babysitting/nannying is something I love doing because everyday is something different and it’s absolutely amazing to be apart of a child’s learning and seeing them grow as a person. Families would describe me as someone with a pure heart & genuine intentions. Someone who is trustworthy & reliable & someone is is always in a positive mood. I became a caregiver because I love love love children. I absolutely adore them , they fill a special place in my heart and I love it. The love I have for children is out of this world and I’m more than happy that I make a HUGE POSITIVE impact on these children's lives. It means a lot to me !

Hi! I’m Theresa, a nurturing and reliable caregiver with over 10 years of childcare experience caring for infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I’ve worked with families in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Arkansas providing full-time, part-time, and homework/homeschooling support. My approach is inspired by the Montessori method — encouraging independence, creativity, and confidence through hands-on learning and gentle structure. I love setting up engaging, developmentally appropriate activities that spark curiosity and joy while maintaining a calm, organized routine. I bring patience and consistency to every day. I previously worked as an assistant teacher at a Montessori school, and I hold a B.A. from Thomas More College of Liberal Arts. Families describe me as dependable, communicative, and genuinely caring. I value creating a safe, positive environment where children can thrive emotionally and intellectually.

Theresa really stood out to us as someone who is extremely reliable and responsive. Theresa nannied for my 2.5 year old son, and we had a great experience. She planned fun activities and encouraged my son's development. She was very accommodating with her schedule to meet our needs. Theresa was always on-time and willing to jump in and offer up ideas for activities and goals. My son had a great time with Theresa and we highly recommend her for future positions!

Ms. Sheri is a Godsend. I hired her for a sitting job for a family BBQ. Not only did she and her daughter sit for the two children in attendance but also were a tremendous help with prepping for the party and assisted in the kitchen and grill during the party. I will hire her again without hesitation.
