Hayden
Hi! My name is Hayden Wilson, I am 25 years old and currently living in Edgewater. I moved to Chicago from St. Louis about 2 years ago. Since my move, I have worked for a nanny company. I worked with children from 6 months to 12 years, ranging from in-home care to events with up to 40 children! I love planning crafts and activities, and most of all seeing what children can make when given different materials and creative tools. While living in St. Louis I worked at The Little Gym as a children’s gymnastics instructor (ages 3-8) and at Kindercare as an assistant teacher (ages 2-5). I love reading, singing, and exploring the world with the kids in my care, and getting out into nature when we can!

Dalilah
Hi! My name is Dalilah, and I am a 21-year-old assistant preschool teacher with over 10 years of experience caring for and working with children. Helping little ones learn, grow, and discover the world around them is something I truly love. I believe every child deserves to feel safe, valued, and encouraged to be themselves, and I strive to create a classroom where they can build confidence, make friends, and have fun while learning. I enjoy creating engaging, hands-on activities that inspire curiosity, creativity, and a love for learning. Building trusting relationships with children and their families is one of the most rewarding parts of my job, and I am committed to providing a nurturing, supportive environment where every child can thrive. It is a privilege to be part of each child's early learning journey, and I look forward to making a positive difference in their lives every day.

Jaida
Hiii, my name is Jaida! I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and watching them grow, learn, and gain confidence. Every child has a unique personality, and I love being someone they can feel safe, supported, and comfortable with. Building meaningful connections with children while giving parents peace of mind is one of the most rewarding parts of being a sitter. Additional Things: - I have a background check from July, 2026 - I am CPR/First-Aid Certified - this is the app I get the least buzz on so I don’t have recommendations but if requested, I could fulfill!
