Hi, My name is Kelsey. I am a fun, easy going, reliable individual. My passion for working with children has extended throughout my life starting with babysitting for my family members. My experience began in high school where I taught 4yr old preschool children who attended our high school program. As a result of that, I began to Nanny for a family of one of my students. I have worked a before & after school program for a variety of grammar schools through the park district. I am currently working as a preschool teacher at a day care with children ranging from 6 weeks to 12 years old. I have been CPR certified.

Hi! My name is Kanyiti, and I’m a CPR-certified, non-smoking caregiver with 4 years of diverse childcare experience. I specialize in caring for children of all ages, having spent 2 years babysitting little ones and another 2 years working with children in kindergarten and first grade in after-school programs and at the YMCA. I also worked a couple summers as a camp counselor primarily with 6th and 7th graders. In summer 2023, I had the opportunity to volunteer at an elementary school in Ghana, where I supported early childhood education and gained even more hands-on experience with young children. My background has helped me develop a strong understanding of child development, routines, and how to create a nurturing, engaging environment. I love planning fun, age-appropriate activities like sensory play, stroller walks, music time, story time, and baby-safe arts and crafts for younger kids and bike rides, board games, baking and outdoor games for older kids. I’m also a proud cat owner of three, so I’m very comfortable in homes with pets of all kinds! I’m based in Yorkville, have a fully open and flexible schedule this summer, and am passionate about helping children thrive. I’d love the opportunity to care for your little one and be a positive part of your family’s routine!

Hi! I’m Cassandra (Cassie), and I have an enormous love for children and a passion for making every moment fun, safe, and educational. Whether you're looking for a regular babysitter, Nanny, need a few hours to focus, or want to enjoy a night out, I’d love to help! Growing up in a big family with cousins ranging from babies to teens, I’ve always been surrounded by kids, which is where my passion for childcare began. With experience babysitting children of all ages—3 months to 13 years old—I’ve learned how to make kids feel comfortable, entertained, and engaged through creative play. I’m always looking for ways to tailor activities to each child’s unique interests, whether it’s arts and crafts, games, or even a little dance break to get the wiggles out! I also know how frustrating homework can be (especially math!), so I’m more than happy to lend a hand with schoolwork, ensuring the experience is as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. In addition to my practical experience, I completed a child development course in high school, and my background in music has allowed me to introduce children to the joy of singing, dancing, and playing “instruments” (pots & pans count). Music is a huge part of my life, and I’m excited to share that with kids, whether teaching them a new song, having a spontaneous dance party, or just using music to inspire creativity and expression. I’m fluent in both English and Spanish, so I can connect with a wide range of families and children. What I truly enjoy about babysitting is getting to know each child and helping them grow in their unique way. As a youth and kids ministry leader, my faith drives me to create environments where others feel safe, valued, and loved. I’m a joyful, energetic, patient, and compassionate person who believes in showing love, kindness, and respect to everyone, especially children, and I strive to reflect these values in all I do. If desired, I’m also open to sharing my faith and teaching children biblical principles about God's love in a fun, gentle, and welcoming way if that is something you’re also looking for in a sitter. I’m committed to making sure that every child I care for has a positive, enriching experience with me. Feel free to reach out if you’re looking for a reliable, fun-loving sitter who is always ready to make your child’s day a little brighter!
