Hi! I'm Iggy. I've worked as a babysitter, nanny, after school counselor, and outdoor education instructor. I'm a certified lifeguard, CPR/first-aid trained, and I have my youth mental health first aid certification. I have experience with ages 1-18, and have experience working with children with mental and physical disabilities. I'm new to the Champaign-Urbana area and would love to connect with some local families! My favorite part of working with kids is helping them embrace their creativity and curiosity. I love finding what kiddos love to do and supporting them in it, whether it's building a pillow fort, reading aloud together, or playing outside. I respect the intelligence and independence of the kids I work with, and try to provide gentle, discovery-based guidance when needed. P.S. I used to work at an animal shelter and my house is basically a menagerie at any given time, so pets are a bonus and I'd love to help care for them as well!

I have been a caretaker as early as I can remember. I started babysitting for children in my neighborhood in middle school. I went to college and obtained my degree in Early Childhood Education. I raised three daughters of my own. The majority of my jobs over the past twenty five years have been caring for young children. I have acquired some great experience and lessons over the years. My strengths are my patience and reliability. I love singing and reading to children. Taking long nature walks is one of my favorite activities to share with children. If you would like to talk further;. Please feel free to contact me at your earliest convenience. Thanks so much! Ellen Buetow

Hi! I am currently a medical student on a leave of absence, and I truly enjoy working with children. I love being a sitter because I get to create a safe, fun, and supportive environment, whether that’s through play, helping with learning, or just being a reliable and caring presence. I have experience caring for children in both personal and volunteer settings, including engaging them in activities, helping with their routines, and ensuring their safety and well-being. I’m happy to assist with light cleaning, homework help, and structured activities when needed. My medical training has given me a strong foundation in safety, attention to detail, and communication, and I bring a calm, responsible, and attentive approach to every family I work with. I’d love to connect and set up a call to see if I’d be a good fit for your family!

Hello! I started working with kids when I was 10 years old babysitting cousins and siblings. I have worked at 2 daycares in Champaign, and I have a lot of experience working with special needs children and adults. I am currently working with a baby regularly that is 15 months old, I’ve been working with him since he was just 4 months old and I love having been able to see him grow! I'd describe my personality as fun, intuitive, and caring. I love connecting with children and employers as if we are all family. I care not only for children but also for parents. I very much enjoy hearing about your workdays and any recreational activities that you participate in. My skills include socio-emotional education and grounding techniques, conscious discipline, and the awareness of child development in regard to age appropriate education and recreational activities. I have an opening in my availability since one of my families no longer needs my care. I tend to be loyal to several families at a time and balance myself between them (seamlessly, might I add ;)

I'm an occupational therapy assistant (unlicensed for right now) with an associate's degree in science. I would like to nanny and babysit while I study for my national boards to be a registered COTA! I'm dedicated, empathetic, and energetic, with a passion for working with kids and creating engaging, device-free activities. I have strong leadership skills and am looking for a job where I can learn and grow. I have my own transportation and have worked with kids with various cognitive, behavioral, and physical deficits. In my free time I enjoy spending time outdoors with my dog, going on hikes, spending time with friends. I hold a CPR certification and have skills in communication, patience, and child development.

Hi everyone! I recently graduated from University of Illinois in December and I'm looking for babysitting and nannying jobs during the upcoming spring semester (January 19-May 16). I won't be taking classes, so my schedule will be very open and I can accommodate a variety of days and times. I love working with kids and have been babysitting since I was 12! For the past 4 years, I also coached gymnastics and diving with kids ages 2-16. Additionally, I have a reliable car to help out with any drop-off or pick-ups! Please reach out if you have any questions!

Hello, my name is Madisyn. I have three years of child care experience. One year as a nanny and two years in daycare. I grew up in foster care which has given me a passion for helping and a love for children. I do not have children of my own but I hope to one day. I have a reliable car and can transport children, run errands, cook, clean, and much more. I love being outside, reading, watching movies, and baking. I am very adamant that children learn through play. Some things I love to do sensory play, situational play (like playing house or playing shop keeper), and independent play. I look forward to finding a family that fits me!
