Hello everyone I am Corrine! I am currently 24 and living in the South Elgin area. I was a nanny to a wonderful family with two kids for a little over four years until the mom was able to be a stay at home mom! I have been nannying since 2019 and have cared for all ages! More than willing to help with pick-ups and drop-offs, homework, grocery shopping, housework, anything you may need really! I am working for a family currently on Mondays through Fridays from 8am until 4pm, but am open to any evening or weekend hours!

I'm currently working with Corrine to care for my 8 year old son while he does remote learning and I work. She engages with him very well, keeps him on track for school, and plays with him while on breaks. It has been a great experience so far!

My name is Jill Patel and I would love to be your next helper! I am a rising junior at the university of pittsburgh where I am majoring in neuroscience and child development. A little bit about me is that I love all kinds of animals, I can speak 4 languages fluently (English, Gujarati, Hindi, French), and I love the outdoors. I has lots of experience with kids since I was a nanny for a 2 year old and an 8 month old, and I have been a tennis coach for 4 years. I adore kids of all ages and love to connect with each of them. They bring a fresh perspective to everything and can brighten up any sad day. Working as a tennis coach with children as young as 3 and adults as old as 60, I have picked up a lot of tips and tricks when it comes to working and engaging with children. I believe that my job has really given me an insight on what goes on their little minds and how I can form a relationship with them. So I’ve encountered any and all situations with kids from ad young as infants and up to high schoolers. I like to approach with a more hands-on approach regarding activities, with limited screen time. I always have lots of games, stories, educative learning, and imagery play ready to go!

I highly recommend Ashley as a nanny for your family. Over the past 4.5 years, Ashley has been an invaluable member of our household, providing exceptional care for our three children. Her engaging personality, nurturing nature, and impeccable organizational skills make her an ideal candidate for any family seeking a dedicated and reliable childcare provider. First and foremost, Ashley’s ability to connect with children is truly remarkable. She interacts with our children in a way that is both engaging and educational, fostering a sense of curiosity and creativity in them. My children benefited greatly from interactions that involve positive emotions, high levels of engagement, and opportunities for exploration and learning. Ashley embodies all of these qualities in her interactions with our kids and consistently creates an enriching environment for their growth and development. Ashley’s nurturing nature is evident in the way she cares for our kids. She is attentive, patient, and compassionate, always putting the needs and well-being of our children first. Ashley’s ability to create a warm and nurturing environment for our children has been instrumental in their emotional and social development, fostering a sense of security and trust that has helped them flourish. In addition to her innate qualities as a caregiver, Ashley’s organizational skills and preparedness are unmatched. She goes above and beyond to ensure that she is fully prepared for any situation that may arise, whether it be a scheduled activity or an unexpected challenge. Her keen attention to detail and proactive approach have been invaluable to our family, especially during major milestones, especially that what can be dreaded task of potty training. Ashley successfully guided us through this challenging process not once, but twice. I cannot recommend Ashley enough as a nanny for your family. I am confident that Ashley will exceed your expectations and provide your children with the love, care, and support they need to thrive.

I'm a mom to two teenage boys located in Geneva, that left the professional work force behind in which I had a nanny so I know how crucial a need that is. I've been working with a wonderful family with an infant + big sis that is transitioning to preschool, as well as experience with home health needs + childcare needs, and home health hospice care. My main passion is to care give. I'm looking for a minimum of 35 hours a week and can offer scheduling flexibility, also CPR certified. Areas of specialty: - Infant care - Baby sign language - Play based learning - Arts & crafts - Activities outdoors & in the community - Educational needs such as homework assistance Our nanny was with our family for 8 years and saw the incredibly positive results of that continuity of care. I view my role as a caregiver as a resource to support the entire family. Essentially I'm there to make your lives easier by knowing you have a nanny that you can trust and is dedicated to just your family.

I've been caring for children for over four years, and I find great joy in helping them grow and learn. My previous babysitting roles showed me that I have a knack for creating a safe and nurturing environment for children. I'm patient, calm, and always ready to play! I'm comfortable taking care of children of all ages, and I'm very comfortable enforcing household rules. I believe in open communication with parents, and I'm happy to discuss any issues that arise throughout the day. I also follow the parents' preferred communication method, whether it's verbal communication at pickup or through text. I love playing games with children, especially outdoor sports and physical games, as well as board games and puzzles. I also enjoy arts and crafts, and I'm always looking for new and creative ways to engage children. I have some high school education, and I'm CPR and First Aio certified. I have a car, so I can easily transport children to and from activities.

Hi! My names Mary, I am a 20 year old graduate who has been babysitting since I was 11. I am a very energetic, happy, and caring caregiver. I have experience with babysitting as well as being a nanny, I can do both. I have one niece and one nephew who I have watched throughout the years, as well as many younger cousins. I am going to community college so I will be available even after summer. I enjoy doing activities with the children as well as taking them places. I can watch the kids either at my house or yours, whichever works better for you. I also have a 3 1/2 nephew that loves to play with other kids if you’re comfortable with him coming with me occasionally or bringing the kids back to my house to play and hang out! I have a pretty flexible schedule, and am always up to help. I do have another nannying job that varies week to week but on days I don’t have them am very happy to help any way I can. I have always loved children and am told I have a special way with them.
