Hi! My name is Ariel Creal. I love being a sitter, being able to help the kids and have fun! I make sure to do what the child likes and make them happy. I have been a sitter for 5 years, and have such a great rapport with all the parents. I am a super energetic person, always bubbly, love outdoors, games, and coloring. I am CPR+ and First Aid certified. I do have my own car to travel. I can cook, clean, help with homework, change diapers. The most important thing is making sure a child feels safe and comfortable and I try to be that safe space for all kids.

Oyin S., Babysitter in Murphysboro, IL 62966 with 6 years of paid experience

Hi there! I'm Oyin. I recently earned my degree in psychology and my masters in social work , and I have been caring for children for 12 years as a babysitter and worked a bright horizon and rainbows end. I have a lot of experience working with infants-school age, and I also spent three years babysitting a six-year-old girl on the autism spectrum. I truly love working with young kids, and I approach each child as an individual who I get to help grow and teach. Nothing makes me happier than running into someone who I used to babysit and remembering all the fun times we had together! I can provide references upon request. I'd love to meet you and get to know your children.

Hi! My name is Elliott but I go by Ellie, and I am currently a college student at SIU studying Special Education. I have always loved working with children and have several years of experience through babysitting, nannying, and working in childcare. I currently work at a daycare and also get hands-on experience working with students with disabilities through my college program and clinical placement. I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy getting to know each child and finding things that they enjoy. I am comfortable caring for children with different personalities, abilities, communication styles, and support needs. I have experience caring for multiple children at once as well as children with special needs. I am patient, caring, dependable, and energetic. I enjoy doing crafts, playing games, going outside, helping with routines, and finding activities that are fun and appropriate for each child. My Special Education coursework has also given me experience with behavior supports, communication needs, accommodations, and adapting activities for different abilities. I am always willing to learn a family's routines and the specific needs of their child so that they can feel comfortable and confident while their child is in my care.
