I have been in childcare for many years and in many different settings, including daycares, private households as a full time nanny, and of course countless date-night/occasional families. I am CPR certified for infants and adults, and am currently in school for education. I love working with children because I enjoy watching their curious nature flourish and having my part in helping them learn and grow. I have experience with all ages, as well as experience with potty training, sleep training, etc. All of my different experience has helped me become the caregiver I am today, and I look forward to growing and learning even more.

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.

Hi! I'm currently working at a daycare where I've gained 5 years experience along with additional babysitting experience. I primarily work with 5 to 11 year olds, but I also work with 6 week to 4 year olds during the school day. Because of this I am first aid certified along with being CPR certified for Infants, Children, and Adults. I'm a current student at Northern Illinois University in the Education department. My major is in Middle Level Math education (to be a middle school math teacher), but I've also taken professional development courses in early life and elementary education. I was also chosen for NIU's 2024 Educate Global trip where I had the chance to teach for a month in Indonesia, so I have plenty of interesting stories to tell!

Hi, I’m Kaitlynn! I love being a sitter because I enjoy helping children feel safe, supported, and happy while giving parents peace of mind. Working with kids has always been something I’m passionate about, and I truly enjoy building positive relationships with both children and families. I have experience working with young children through teaching, childcare, and classroom settings. I’m currently studying education and have worked closely with students in structured and nurturing environments. This has helped me learn how to support children with different learning styles, personalities, and needs. I’m patient, dependable, and caring. I’m trained in classroom management, child development, and creating fun, engaging activities that support learning and creativity. I’m also comfortable helping with homework, routines, meals, and bedtime. Safety and communication are always my top priorities. I would love the opportunity to support your family and care for your child as if they were my own!
