Morgan is wonderful! Our kids love her and so do we! She's very kind and calming and actually plays with and interacts with the kids instead of just watching them.

Hi there. I’m Ashley. I used to work as a day care teacher in the school age room. I currently babysit through my local church in the toddler age/infant section. I’ve done childcare work since I was 16 so this is not new territory for me. I’m open to doing light housework and cooking as well as small errands as needed. At maximum I’m open to watching four children, and I can help with homework if needed for school age children. I’m also okay with taking care of dogs and cats including walking small dogs.

Ashley is so creative and pays attention to detail. She remembers big things like medical issues, and the small things like your kid’s favorite snack or color. She’s caring, for kids and their families, which is very important to me. Ashley is one of my go-to people for childcare!

We hired Savannah as a full-time nanny for 1 toddler and she was with us 6 weeks. As an honest review, part-time or babysitting work may be more fitting where there are less expectations. My son was always safe with Savannah and she was very gentle with him, however the feedback I received from her as we parted ways was that the job requirements we detailed very clearly prior hiring proved to be too overwhelming for her (including: keeping baby’s play/eat areas clean, baby’s laundry, help with light housekeeping).

A little about me: ✨ I live in Homewood. ✨ I've been a clinical mental health therapist for 11 years, currently working full-time as both a Clinical Director and Clinical Therapist. ✨ I specialize in parent coaching, helping parents navigate challenging behaviors and strengthen family relationships. ✨ Before becoming a therapist, I spent over 10 years working as a childcare provider, including several years as a full-time nanny. I worked with seven different families, four of which were nanny shares, caring for children of various ages. ✨ I'm also a parent myself to a now young adult, and I helped raise my two younger brothers, who are also now young adults. Caring for and supporting children has truly been a lifelong passion, both personally and professionally. I'm getting married in May 2027 and am looking for a small part-time opportunity doing something I genuinely love. Availability: • Starting after the 4th of July 2026 • Sundays & Mondays • Approximately 10-16 hours per week Rates: • $35–45/hour for nannying/mother's helper services (depending on the number and ages of children) • $45/hour if you'd like hands-on, 1:1 parent coaching incorporated into our time together. My parenting support comes from a developmental and behavioral perspective. I don't subscribe to or push any particular parenting philosophy. Instead, I focus on practical, individualized strategies that fit your family's unique needs. If you're looking for a dependable, experienced caregiver who can also offer professional guidance and support when needed, I'd love to connect! Feel free to send me a message if you think I might be a good fit for your family.

We are very fortunate to have found Michele through Sitter City three years ago. She became the nanny to our then 6- week-old son and gave excellent care. Three years later, Michelle continues to be involved in our son and his new younger brothers' life, occasionally babysitting and has recently been taking our older boy with her on activities with with her younger brothers and her son. It is the highlight of his week and he has a blast. We feel lucky to have met Michele and we encourage you to contact us if you are considering her, Chris (323-687-3639) or Elizabeth (310-699-5906).

Debbie was excellent with our newborn and our 10 yr old with special needs. She was communicative, reliable, super hands on and engaging. Both the kids enjoyed her. She has a natural affinity for caregiving and for child care and it shows. Her experience impressed us but her ability to jump in (our primary sitter fell through) and not miss a beat was truly a blessing. Would highly recommend her for your child care needs! She is a gem.

Hi my name is Maria I am a 25 year old female and I am looking to care for kids and provide them excellent care. I have experience with infants and toddlers, I used to work as a teachers assistant at a daycare in my area sadly I could not continue working in the daycare because I started school and they only had full time positions available. I also worked as a nanny for a 4 month old infant and a baby sitter for a 2 year toddler. I speak both Spanish and English. If Spanish is something you are interested for your kids to learn I can completely provide that. I am good at communicating with small children and helping them with their homework as well as meal prep, laundry for children and giving them emotional support when needed. I am a non smoker, I promise to take care of your kid as if he/she/they were my own. I have my own car so valid transportation you will receive. you will not regret it! Super reliable and punctual. I have a lot of active experience right now and have been working with families these past 3 months. I have had the opportunity to care for a 5 month old who is now 9 months, A toddler, pre school age child, and two girls who are now 6 years old and 12 years old. I have very active experience and I am looking forward to being able to help families and give them the extra support that they need! I am very punctual and will always let know ahead of time if there are any issues with scheduling but I am pretty reliable. I love working with baby’s and kids and see myself doing this long term. I do have an active background check, motor vehicle background check, cpr certifications and can provide great references to speak on my work. Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile, I hope to be able to connect!

Hi! My name is Taylor, I worked at a daycare for about a year in high school, did a lot of babysitting for family & friends. I went to Elementary school in Hyde park, later moved to the suburbs and went to high school at Thornwood, started college at Governors state. I joined sittercity because I eventually want to open up a daycare and thought I should start working more in the career I love and want to permanently work in. Whether it’s helping with homework, keeping little ones entertained, or just making sure they feel cared for, I’m here to help! I’m very responsible, reliable and patient. I’d be happy to support your family whenever you need an extra hand.
