Hi there , A little bit about myself is that I'm a fun-loving babysitter. My name is Kathia I’m a Dekalb High School graduate looking to further my education with working with children. In high school I participated in my schools childcare “Alphabitty Chidlcare Program” learned many things as well as got certified in many areas .I love interacting with kids and being funny and goofy meanwhile still have them listen and respect me. Coloring, dancing, reading, making crafts It's all very easy for me to connect with kids. Keeping the child's well-being  is something I take very seriously. I'm a healthy balance of an easy going/patient attitude, and assertive when needed. I understand the importance of my role, and I'm willing to take on that responsibility with your children,Thank you!

Hi, I’m Shi! I’m 22 and I’ve been babysitting on and off since 15. Being responsible for my two younger sisters is how I realized I enjoyed working with children! I’m HUGE on creative outlets so I always like to bring that out when babysitting. I adore animals and have 2 cats! I love cooking and baking so meal prep is no problem at all. I also have open availability!

Leah W., Child Care in Waterman, IL 60556 with 12 years of paid experience

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.

Mia V., Child Care in Waterman, IL 60556 with 7 years of paid experience

I am an enthusiastic sitter looking to spend my summer (and potentially long term) caring for a loving family! I have worked as an assistant teacher in a local Montessori school for the past three years where my love of childcare has grown into a passion for creating and cultivating an environment of developmentally appropriate play and activities. It is my goal to lead and love well, and as a sitter I value both play and intentionality. Outside of my time in the classroom I have 4+ years of experience babysitting/nannying. A little about me :) I would consider myself a fun loving and creative person and enjoy spending most of my time outdoors. In my free time I am stoked about travel, music festivals, playing guitar and film photography. I have an old english sheepdog who is my best buddy. And I am very passionate about my faith. I would love to answer any questions and provide references if you think I may be a good fit for your family!! -mia

Lydia S., Child Care in Waterman, IL 60556 with 5 years of paid experience

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!

Jocelyn W., Child Care in Waterman, IL 60556 with 4 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Jocelyn! I am a 26 year-old DCFS certified childcare teacher with 4 years childcare experience. I am CPR and first aid certified. This May I completed my ME in Elementary Education. I plan to teach in a school or start my own homeschool service when my children are older. I currently work at Prairie Pals Christian Preschool and Childcare full time. My first child is due this August and I would love to continue caring for children outside the daycare environment to allow for more one-on-one attention. I don’t plan on taking an extensive maternity leave- especially since my husband’s job has blessed us with a paternity leave! I am comfortable around all animals as long as they are relatively tame (had one bite experience) and would love to take care of them as well! I wouldn’t mind tasks like meal prepping, laundry, or general housekeeping.
