Hello,  My name is Kelly Boyer. I have babysat for various families in the Southern Illinois area. My babysitting experience began when I was very young.

I am a dedicated and responsible childcare professional with a strong background in early childhood education. With valuable experience gained from SIUE Early Childhood Center, daycare settings, and as an experienced nanny ranging from 1 to 11 years old, I possess a deep understanding of child development and a genuine passion for working with children.

I graduated with my bachelor's in Early Childhood Education with an endorsement in Special Education from SIUe in 2019 and have training and experience with trauma informed practices and challenging behavior. I love what I do and the relationships I build along the way :)

Hi! My name is Maeve Heumann and I am 22 yr old recent college graduate living in Edwardsville, IL. I've always loved kids so much and been drawn to their energy and imaginative nature. For 10 years, I've been a regular Babysitter/Nanny for all the local families in my neighborhood, and gone on to be a regular Nanny for families with infant children and energetic toddlers. I have no problem with high energy or multiple children, and love interacting and playing with kids while forming friendships. I have experience as a YMCA Camp Attendant and a full-time Summer Camp Counselor at Camp Ondessonk, making me CPR certified. I've also spent some time as a Party Princess, so Disney and similar characters are part of my expertise! I'm an Animation major, so I love watching cartoons and drawing with kids! I have no problems with pets, and have a car of my own for driving kids wherever they need to go (seatbelts required :)) I'm an energetic and friendly person, and love the children that I spend time and bond with. I'm responsible and dedicated and will happily work to the special needs and schedule of my clients. My schedule is very flexible and looking for full-time work.

Hi I am a behavior technician that works with kids with disabilities, specifically kids with autism. I have experience working in clinics with children teaching them lifestyle skills like potty training, feeding, cleaning, and overall more independence in their daily lives. I would say that I am set apart from others because I have the experience with different ages of children, go to school for development of children, and have worked with children with disabilities.

Hi! My name is Gaby and I am a compassionate and skilled Occupational Therapy Assistant (OTA) with experience working with children of all ages. My background in pediatric occupational therapy allows me to create a nurturing and stimulating environment that supports early childhood development and creativity. I’m trained in CPR/First Aid, have my own car, and am very reliable. I truly enjoy getting to know each child’s unique personality and helping them learn and grow while having fun. I work full time at my therapy job Monday-Friday, so I am looking for evening babysitting and weekends. I’d be happy to FaceTime if I seem like a good fit for your family:)

I genuinely love being a sitter because caring for children brings me so much joy. I love helping them learn, laugh, and grow in safe and supportive environments. As a nursing student and oldest daughter of eight children, nurturing and being attentive comes naturally to me, and babysitting gives me the chance to pour that same care into families who trust me with their little ones. I find it rewarding to build bonds with kids and give parents peace of mind knowing their children are in good hands. I’ve been caring for children of all ages through volunteer work, family friends, and community programs for several years. I’ve worked with infants, toddlers, and school-aged kids. From bottle-feeding and diaper changes to homework help and bedtime routines. Through my involvement with organizations like DREAAM, I’ve supported children from diverse backgrounds, helped with tutoring, and organized fun learning activities. As a nursing major at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, I’m trained in health and safety practices, including CPR and first aid principles. I’m attentive, organized, and great at communication, which are skills that help me connect with both kids and parents. My background in leadership roles on campus has strengthened my ability to manage routines, stay calm under pressure, and handle multiple responsibilities with care. I also love creative activities, helping with schoolwork, and keeping children engaged in positive ways.

I love being a sitter because caring for children brings me joy every day is an opportunity to make a positive impact while helping families feel at ease. I have experience working with kids age 5-month-old-3or 4 years old. and I’m trained in CPR and first aid but still don't have my card, yet it will come in the mail soon. My patience, creativity, and strong communication skills help me create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for every child
