Hi! My name is Ariel Creal. I love being a sitter, being able to help the kids and have fun! I make sure to do what the child likes and make them happy. I have been a sitter for 5 years, and have such a great rapport with all the parents. I am a super energetic person, always bubbly, love outdoors, games, and coloring. I am CPR+ and First Aid certified. I do have my own car to travel. I can cook, clean, help with homework, change diapers. The most important thing is making sure a child feels safe and comfortable and I try to be that safe space for all kids.

Hey! My name is Ilknur, I know it’s a little different. I grew up in St.Louis and I went to SIU for English. My first job was at a daycare in St.Louis. I worked with newborns, toddlers and school age children. I was responsible for changing diapers, bottle feeding and making sure the newborns had their naps. In addition, I was also a Lead Teacher at Malone's Daycare in Carterville, IL for the 2 year old classroom. This role required lesson planning, being creative and was fast paced. I’m punctual, organized and very patient. I’m always on time and I don’t like being late. Most importantly I’m reliable and I take accountability for my actions like any adult should.

I’m a responsible, patient, and caring sitter with years of hands-on childcare experience, including paid babysitting in New York City and extensive experience caring for cousins and neighbors’ children. I’ve worked with children of different ages, helping with daily routines, meals, homework, bedtime, and potty training, while creating a safe and supportive environment. I’m currently preparing for medical school, which reflects my strong sense of responsibility, attentiveness, and commitment to care. I enjoy helping with academic enrichment, homework support, and engaging activities that support children’s growth and confidence. I’m also very comfortable with pets as I have a cat of my own who is truly my little baby, and I’m happy to help with pet care as well. In addition to childcare, I’m glad to assist with light household help to support families’ routines. I have open availability, am flexible with scheduling, and pride myself on being dependable, calm, and communicative. I truly enjoy building meaningful connections with children and supporting families with thoughtful, reliable care.
