Hi there , A little bit about myself is that I'm a fun-loving babysitter. My name is Kathia I’m a Dekalb High School graduate looking to further my education with working with children. In high school I participated in my schools childcare “Alphabitty Chidlcare Program” learned many things as well as got certified in many areas .I love interacting with kids and being funny and goofy meanwhile still have them listen and respect me. Coloring, dancing, reading, making crafts It's all very easy for me to connect with kids. Keeping the child's well-being is something I take very seriously. I'm a healthy balance of an easy going/patient attitude, and assertive when needed. I understand the importance of my role, and I'm willing to take on that responsibility with your children,Thank you! CPR certified I have been working in a daycare from February 2023 up until now and I have been a floater helping in all of the classrooms and have 2 school age classrooms with 30 kids from k-5 I would say I am very experienced and I nannied for many families as well as a family of 3 for 2 1/2 years

We are thrilled to share our experience with Ruth, who has been an exceptional caregiver for our toddler son. From the moment she joined us, she has consistently demonstrated professionalism, kindness, and a genuine love for children. Ruth has a remarkable ability to connect with kids, making them feel comfortable and valued. She engages them in creative and educational activities that not only entertain but also contribute to their development. Her patience and understanding are truly commendable, especially when handling the occasional tantrum or two. One of the things we appreciate most about Ruth is her reliability and punctuality. She has always been there when we needed her, often going above and beyond to accommodate our schedules. We will definitely recommend her services if you're looking for a nanny/sitter for your child.

Hi, my name is Beth! I started nannying part time for a family in Plainfield for four years. After that experience, I took on a full time position taking care of infant twin boys for two years. I moved out to DeKalb in the Fall of 2016 and nannied for two families. I have experience with all age groups and am CPR certified. I enjoy working with children because they say the cutest and funniest things. Also, it makes me happy to be a positive role model. I have my Associates Degree in Arts and Science and my my Bachelors Degree in Communication with a Minor in marketing. Thanks for reading!

Hi! My names Mary, I am a 20 year old graduate who has been babysitting since I was 11. I am a very energetic, happy, and caring caregiver. I have experience with babysitting as well as being a nanny, I can do both. I have one niece and one nephew who I have watched throughout the years, as well as many younger cousins. I am going to community college so I will be available even after summer. I enjoy doing activities with the children as well as taking them places. I can watch the kids either at my house or yours, whichever works better for you. I also have a 3 1/2 nephew that loves to play with other kids if you’re comfortable with him coming with me occasionally or bringing the kids back to my house to play and hang out! I have a pretty flexible schedule, and am always up to help. I do have another nannying job that varies week to week but on days I don’t have them am very happy to help any way I can. I have always loved children and am told I have a special way with them.

Being a sitter can make you feel a sense of fulfillment by providing care and support while building a positive relationship with the children and their families. It’s a job where you can be creative, active, and make a meaningful impact on young lives. Growing up as the oldest coming from a big family you take on a lot of responsibilities and skills like communication, patience, understanding of child development stances, adaptability, problem solving, safety awareness, the availability to stay calm under pressure, and being able to foster a child’s social, emotional, and intellectual growth through engaging activities.

As long as I can remember, I've always been around kids. I became a mother's helper at a young age, and started babysitting around 5th grade. That seems like forever ago! I continued to babysit regularly through high school. After college, I was a nanny for a couple of years. I now work at a Day Care Center. I'm a fun, energetic person who loves kids! I am back in school for my Early Childhood Education certification (which I will earn December 2015). My schedule will change slightly until then as a new semester begins, but outside of that, I am very flexible. I am First Aid Certified, and with the expected ECE certification in fall, I will be CPR Certified too! :)

Hi families! My name is Anadelis & I’m 32 years old. I live in Hampshire, IL. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology & I’m passionate about supporting children’s emotional, behavioral, & developmental growth. I bring hands-on experience working with infants through young adults, including children with special needs, where I provided 1:1 support, implemented behavior plans, & helped create safe, structured, and nurturing environments. I would describe myself as warm, patient, dependable, and very nurturing. I grew up in a close-knit family and helped care for my younger siblings, which naturally shaped my love for caregiving. In my free time, I love cooking, spending time outdoors, and being with my partner, family, and our two cats. I’m also bilingual (English/Spanish), which I’m happy to incorporate into childcare if desired. I would love the opportunity to support your family & provide a safe, engaging, & loving environment for your children. I look forward to connecting with you!

My long term goal is to be a preschool teacher, therefore in high school I had the opportunity to observe and participate in a preschool program at South East elementary school. In my experience I assisted the children with their daily routines and responsibilities. Helping foster their independence was one of the best parts of my job. I loved seeing them smile when they accomplished something. My interests include, animals, music, kids,singing dancing, and biking. I'm a very outgoing person, I'm a recent graduate of Sycamore High school and I hope to obtain an opportunity to further my career goals.

I am a mom of three and have a child with special needs. I understand the importance of safe reliable care, and a caregiver you can fully trust. I provided child care for various families for 7 years. I was also a Certified Nursing Assistant for 7 years, I hold an active Illinois Paraprofessional Educator license, and I am a certified professional organizer. I homeschooled my own kids Preschool to 5th grade, so I love building learning into everyday moments, especially early reading and hands-on creativity. Expect lots of arts and crafts, imaginative play, and activities that keep kids engaged and having fun while also building skills. I would love to connect if you are seeking care and are interested in my services!
