Amaiya
Hello, my name is Amaiya! I am a college student with 4+ years of childcare experience and multiple certifications. I have experience with children of all ages, infant to school age! I’ve worked in babysitting, daycare, church, school and recreational environments, including care for children in groups of 1-25 at a time. I enjoy fun activities such as coloring, dancing, art & crafts, puzzles, trying new recipes, all while prioritizing safety. I look forward to meeting you!

The laughter that a toddler makes when they have discovered something new is one of the best sounds that you could ever hear. My experience covers a range of care for infants to high schoolers. I've worked in daycare settings as the lead and assistant teacher for infants to Pre-Kindergarten. I chose to branch out, and worked in professional settings after receiving my bachelor's degree. I have worked as a family liaison for a Tindley Genesis Academy in Indianapolis, Indiana and have been a Site based Program Manager for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Metro Chicago. **** I currently prefer to work with ages 2 and younger. ***

Leila
Hello! I am so excited to meet with you and provide you with ease by looking after your kiddos. I have babysat for neighbors whose kids were between 4 and 12, volunteered with kids at the library to teach children how to garden and read, and I currently work in early literacy tutoring. I have plenty of board games, crafts, and puzzles and I love to cook. I’m also great with pets and am happy to feed, play with, and walk any pets that may need care as well.

Maggie
Hi! I’m Maggie, I’m 20 years old, and I’m earning my undergrad at CU Boulder. I’ve worked in childcare for 5+ years, and I have experience watching kids of all ages. I love spending time with kids, and would love any opportunity to meet some new families, and help out where I can!

Kellin
I’m currently a college student looking to help out and make extra income for school :)) I have babysat and helped raise my siblings since the age of 7 by my mom’s side, and I’ve looked after kids from newborn to up to 11 years old!

Vanessa
Hi, I’m Vanessa! Childcare is my passion, and I love helping kids learn and grow. I’m currently studying Early Childhood Education at Moraine Valley and hold a Level 1 ECE Credential, which I earned through hands‑on experience as an ECE intern at Reavis High School working directly in a Pre‑K classroom for 2 years. I have great hands-on classroom experience, and I’m still learning new creative ideas every day through my college classes. I’ll always make sure our days are safe, structured, and fun. A few quick facts about me: I’m fully bilingual (English/Spanish), a safe driver with my own car, and very organized with daily routines.

Jenna
Hi! I have nanny experience caring for children ages 1 and 4, and I’m comfortable with toddlers and preschool-age kids. I help with daily routines like meals, naps, and bedtime, along with light meal prep and keeping play areas tidy. I enjoy outdoor and nature play, arts and crafts, reading, and imaginative play, and I prefer to keep screen time minimal. I’m patient, attentive, organized, and good with keeping a consistent routine.

Hayden
Hey! I'm Hayden, and I have a ton of experience working with and caring for kids. I've worked as a swim instructor teaching children ages 5 and up, so I'm very comfortable keeping kids engaged, safe, and having a great time. Beyond the pool, I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids, whether that's helping with activities, being a responsible and attentive caregiver, or just being a fun and positive presence. I'm patient, energetic, and parents can feel confident knowing their little ones are in good hands!

I have over ten years of hands-on childcare experience caring for children from newborns to age ten, primarily within my family, which is a valued part of my culture. My responsibilities included feeding, bathing, putting children to sleep, reading to them, and engaging them in age-appropriate play and learning activities. I hold a certificate in Early Childhood Education, which has strengthened my understanding of child development and safety. I genuinely enjoy working with children and take pride in creating a warm, nurturing, and structured environment where they feel safe, supported, and encouraged to grow emotionally, socially, and academically.
