Ashley B., Child Care in Sycamore, IL 60178 with 3 years of paid experience

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.

Kendall J., Child Care in Sycamore, IL 60178 with 4 years of paid experience

I've been caring for children for over four years, and I find great joy in helping them grow and learn. My previous babysitting roles showed me that I have a knack for creating a safe and nurturing environment for children. I'm patient, calm, and always ready to play! I'm comfortable taking care of children of all ages, and I'm very comfortable enforcing household rules. I believe in open communication with parents, and I'm happy to discuss any issues that arise throughout the day. I also follow the parents' preferred communication method, whether it's verbal communication at pickup or through text. I love playing games with children, especially outdoor sports and physical games, as well as board games and puzzles. I also enjoy arts and crafts, and I'm always looking for new and creative ways to engage children. I have some high school education, and I'm CPR and First Aio certified. I have a car, so I can easily transport children to and from activities.

Sharon F., Child Care in Sycamore, IL 60178 with 30 years of paid experience

I am a part-time nanny in the city of Naperville, IL. I care for two pre-school & elementary school aged girls as a live-out nanny and am looking for full-time position. I organize play by setting up play-dates, taking the girls to the park, and making sure they have plenty of opportunities to enjoy fun crafts at home. I prepare healthy meals, load dishes for clean-up afterward, and make sure the girls are clean, happy, healthy, and safe. They enjoy me and we always find ways to have fun. Their toys are always picked up and laundry done by the end of the day. They have been schooled in good manners, and poor behavior is addressed, and if need be, time-outs are given for discipline. As the kids grow and learn occasions for discipline grow more and more infrequent. Learning and being presented with the challenges of trying new things are an on-going experience. Our days are full and fun and pass quickly the girls are well-rested and pleasant and enjoy our group endeavors but are also given much-needed individual attention.

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.
