I have been a nanny, babysitter, and family manager for over 10 years, working with kids of all ages ranging from 3 months-12 years old. I am a certified Early Childhood/Special Education teacher (PK-2), working at NAEYC accredited child centers, public and private schools. I received my B.S in Child Development with a minor in American Sign Language and my M.S in Early Childhood Education and Special Education. I am also first aid and CPR certified. Growing up, I was a competitive dancer and currently a big kid at heart! I hope you will consider me. Ashley

I love kids and welcome babysitting in the evenings and on weekends. I work full time during the week (so evenings/weekends are perfect for me!) I have babysat my entire live and was a nanny for 5 years. I've worked with numerous other Sittercity families and am always looking to grow with others! I have a lot of experience with children of all ages. I drive my own vehicle, live in Wicker Park/born and raised in Chicago, love pets, have amazing references, and am First Aid and CPR certified (Northwestern). I love kids - I love having them play and explore inside and outside the home. I love engaging them in new activities and motivating and challenging them to learn.

Kim has been a wonderful nanny. She is very caring and attentive to our daughter's needs, is kind and playful during her wake times, and soothing and calm during her nap times. Kim is punctual and responsible, easy to work with and schedule. We really appreciate that she always tries her best for our daughter, and highly recommend her.

I have worked as a babysitter since I was in high school and during my holiday breaks from medical school when I’m back in town. I have multiple years of experience and babysat kids all different ages. As well, in the past I was a swim instructor for kids. I enjoy working with kids, I am patient and manage to have good contact with them. Right now I'm studying medical school in Europe, I’m on my 4th year out of 6 years. Through this I know CPR and first aid as well.

I pride myself on my integrity and honesty. I adore spending time with children and have 7 years of experience caring for toddlers and infants, elementary and middle school children. Not only am I patient, caring and nurturing, I am also extremely organized and very detailed when it comes to housework. I actually enjoy tidying up while the children are napping or playing. I have my CNA and CPR Certified. I've worked 12 years in pediatric icu and pediatrics. I am fully vaccinated as well. I can also be available for date nights on top of a weekly schedule. Hope to talk soon!

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 am a 20 year old female with two younger siblings - a brother 2 years younger and a sister 6 years younger than me. I grew up with a lot of cousins, older and younger, and spent a while living with a family with 7 kids. I had a lot of amazing babysitters and nannies myself and the impact they've had on me and how fun they made our lives has inspired me with how I interact with kids now. I absolutely LOVE children and they love me too! I love to get to know children and be able to pour into them and learn what lights them up so I can help them thrive, feel seen, unlock their creativity, and help them find their passions. I also love to help in any ways I can and naturally help around the house and do chores without a problem, so any other help anyone might need is absolutely included. For me, nannying and babysitting isn't even a job because I get so much joy from it. I am a very kind and loving person and I care about making life easier for parents and adults who have a lot on their plate. I'm clean, tidy, and organized and like coming up with new innovative ideas to help kids. I can help with homework, tutoring, and potty training (and if it matters, I am especially good and math). I'm looking to move to Humboldt park as soon as possible and would love to start by get a stable nannying or babysitting job near that area.
