Hi there! I'm Oyin. I recently earned my degree in psychology and my masters in social work , and I have been caring for children for 12 years as a babysitter and worked a bright horizon and rainbows end. I have a lot of experience working with infants-school age, and I also spent three years babysitting a six-year-old girl on the autism spectrum. I truly love working with young kids, and I approach each child as an individual who I get to help grow and teach. Nothing makes me happier than running into someone who I used to babysit and remembering all the fun times we had together! I can provide references upon request. I'd love to meet you and get to know your children.

I love being a sitter because I love being able to ensure people have security when they need it. I’ve been watching kids my whole life, my sister is Autistic so everything under the branch of babysitting I’d say I excel in. Im good at communicating, bonding, building a relationship, problem solving, cooking, cleaning, etc.

Hi, My name is Eily Stoops! I am a freshman in college at SIU Carbondale! My major is Speech Language Pathology, and my dream is to work with young children! I believe babysitting during my studies will ultimately help me in my long term goal. I was a lifeguard for about 4 years before coming to college. I am certified in AED, CPR and First Aid. I absolutely adore children. I also have a brother that is 13 years younger than me, and is 7 now. I feel like I basically helped my mother raise him, so that definitely gave me some more experience! I would love to meet your families and ultimately be trusted to care for your children! Please feel free to reach out!
