Hello, my names is Susan! I am currently looking for a family who would appreciate a compassionate nanny who is certified to care for their child(ren). When my own children were young, my husband and I hired a nanny. I understand how emotional the hiring process can be, but we found a nanny we loved and trusted, and you will too! Now, let's see if I'm your perfect Nanny! My most recent position was to care for a family's two children. I began when their first son was born, and stayed on to care for their daughter who was born a few years later. The family recently transferred to Michigan. And, now I am searching for a new nanny position! A little bit about myself, I am a very active and fun-loving nanny! I appreciate children and understand and respect their needs. I have knowledge in the areas of child development, positive reinforcement and time management. I've been married for 25 years, and we have an awesome son and daughter who work and attend college. I am a retired elementary teacher who taught in the Kyrene School District as well as Chandler Unified. Please continue to read through my profile to learn more about me! Also, please read my 5 Star Reviews Sincerely, Susan

I am currently an occasional care for several families. I am hoping to find a family needing part time care or evening care. I have CPR and first aid training, DCS clearance, fingerprint card, and Full Background check. I am a very active, young at heart, loving and patient care giver with over 30 years experience as a daycare provider and as a nanny for children newborn to age 13. Since we moved to Arizona 30 years ago, I have been caring for children on occasion, as a fulltime nanny/housekeeper, and have worked fulltime in the medical, Veterinarian, and education fields. I absolutely love caring for children and I take that responsibility very seriously. I love interacting with the children, games, baking, crafts, and outside fun when the weather permits. I don't believe that sitting a child in front of a tv is considederd childcare. My husband and I have raised large dogs, and I also love caring for animals. I am looking for families that would like their care giver to be part of their family, as I always treat the children as my family. I also have current and excellent references.

I’m the former founder, director and owner of one of Chicago’s most prestigious day schools, where I served thousands of children and mentored hundreds of teachers over three decades. In 2020, my husband and I sold our school to Bright Horizons (coincidentally, the parent company of SitterCity.) After the acquisition, I joined the Bright Horizons corporate side for 18 months, I retired early and moved to Fountain Hills. In my “retirement,” I spent one year “back in the game” directing the Early Childhood Department at the Valley of the Sun Jewish Community Center (185 kids + 68 teachers.) When available, I enjoy providing occasional babysitting or “back up care” for whenever your child cannot attend school (including sick care) or when your nanny is sick or otherwise calls in. I can often accommodate your Nanny’s vacations, as well. Additionally, I can provide Nanny Management; assisting with issues, conflict resolution, training, mentoring, lesson planning, baby-proofing, nursery set-up, age appropriate modifications, observation and more. In most cases, I require a 4 hour minimum shift, I also provide overnight or multi-day 24hr care while you travel. (I can even travel with you, if my schedule allows.) I specialize in care for out of town visitors at resorts in the greater Phoenix area; while parents attend conferences, enjoy a round of golf or date night while visiting here in the valley! I’ll come prepared with an arsenal of activities; books, music, crafts, games, etc. My rates start at $35/hour, daily & overnight rates for 24hr overnight care are negotiable and curated individually. I am fully vaccinated (Pfizer) and receive all boosters and flu/rsv shots. *Also, CPR/AED + First Aid certification valid through 12/2025 + I hold an AZ Level 1 (highest level) fingerprint card. Here are a few articles and also a commercial from some years ago that tell a bit about me and my story (obviously from before we sold the school.) https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=axd3gXb3Y1c http://voyagechicago.com/interview/meet-jennifer-heim-detour-2-discovery-day-school-south-loop/ https://greatersouthloop.org/news/south-loop-business-spotlight-detour-2-discovery-day-school/ ** I’m allergic to dogs/cats but have no problem taking non-drowsy allergy meds for my shifts at households with furry friends. *I’m on the board of a bully rescue, so know that I’m certainly an animal lover and I love dogs of all breeds!

I am a kind, caring, understanding and responsible person. and believe in holistic living lifestyle. I love ftaking of children and being in their company because I always wanted to be a teacher since I was young. The idea of becoming a teacher comes from my personal beliefs along with fond memories that I have of school.

I thoroughly enjoy working with children of all ages, supporting their curiosity and enthusiasm to explore and learn from the world around them.

I am able to run all aspects of a household, am a great cook, and adore animals!

Hello my name is Andrea :) I graduated from ASU in May 2020 with a degree in psychology. I have worked with kids of all ages ever since I was 14 years old. I have done babysitting for family and family friends. I worked in the Chandler Unified School district in a before and after school program for kids. I was the lead teacher for a preschool which also had an infant room, so I would care for infants. :) Currently I am a care coordinator for a company that works with clients who have developmental disabilities. I do have my fingerprint clearance card and have my CPR & First Aid certification. I love taking care of children. I never see it as a job because I really enjoy caring for kids. My number one priority is ensuring safety but also making sure kids are having fun!
