LaTasha
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!

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.

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!

Kamerion
Hello! My name is Kamerion, preferably Kam, and I have babysat for parents that have twin 3 month olds to 9 years old! I always try and do activities that would entertain a child without the use of an ipad or tablet since I know screen time is a very important thing!

Sahara
My name is Sahara Penson. I’m a 19 year old college student. I’m an educator at Shedd Aquarium. I specialize with all age groups. I especially love getting to teach children about the different animals at Shedd.

Vicky
Hi! My name is Vicky Vasquez, and I’m a passionate childcare professional with a background in early childhood and special education. I was born and raised in Chicago and have spent my entire life here, building strong roots in the numerous communities and working closely with children and families. I earned my degree in Early Childhood Education and Special Education and spent five amazing years working as a preschool/ special education teacher with Chicago Public Schools. During that time, I supported a diverse group of learners, created engaging lesson plans, and built nurturing environments where every child could thrive. Although I recently made a career shift into recruiting, I deeply miss working directly with children and being part of their daily growth and development. Babysitting allows me to stay connected to my passion by caring for and supporting young children in a meaningful way. I aim to bring a calm, patient, and positive energy to every family I work with. My teaching background helps me create fun, educational, and safe experiences for kids of all ages and kids with all needs! I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide your child(ren) with a caring, dependable, and engaging babysitter!
