Hi ! I'm a single mother to my daughter who just graduated from the Physician Assistant program at Marquette. Proud Mom here! I have over 20 years of babysitting and caregiving experience and am currently certified in Basic Life Support and First Aid. I grew up working at my mother's daycare center, where my passion for working with children bloomed. Over the years, I've volunteered in my church's nursery, taught Sunday school for Pre-K and Kindergarten, and cared for my daughter/nieces/nephews, as well as babysitting for friends and neighbors. I started my career as a professional caregiver over 10 years ago, so I have experience with anyone from infants to teenagers to the elderly. For the past few years, I have worked as a medical assistant in a variety of healthcare settings. To me, caring for children is very rewarding and I love what I do. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family and my friends I am comfortable with pets. I have a reliable car and am able to help with homework, mealtimes, and light housekeeping. I value safe and fun experiences and love to incorporate learning into play and everyday activities. I Love making each day fun and kids smile. I'm a smiley bubbly positive person myself. I'd love to learn more about the ways I can specifically serve you and your family!

Hello and thank you for taking the time to get to know me! My name is Zaina, and I’m an experienced, nurturing, and dedicated childcare provider with a true passion for supporting children’s growth and development. My journey in early childhood education began in high school, where I completed a certified Early Childhood Education program. This foundational experience sparked my love for working with children and led me to begin babysitting and nannying for families with children ranging from infants to 12 years old. Over the years, I’ve worked in a wide variety of childcare settings, including homes, preschools, and after-school programs. I spent three years as an educator and program manager at an elementary school, where I created and implemented engaging daily lesson plans and activities tailored to each child's needs. My approach blends structure with creativity to foster a safe, fun, and educational environment. I’m also experienced in household management and understand how to keep a home running smoothly while ensuring children are happy and well cared for. Currently, I’m pursuing a degree in nursing, which has further deepened my knowledge of child health and development. I’m certified in both infant and child CPR and BLS (Basic Life Support), and I bring a calm, attentive presence to every role I take on. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, staying active, and continuously learning new ways to better support the children in my care. I would love the opportunity to bring my experience, energy, and dedication to a family who values compassionate, reliable care.

I have well over 25 years of professional Nanny/House Managing/Personal Assistant experience, in addition a to Pre-School teaching and Pre-School swim instruction background. I also have In-Home Day Care experience at my Westchester residence. I have a Child Development/Psychology background. I have an extensive medical background/CPR trained and can handle children with special needs. Kids respond to me because I am patient, outgoing, fun-loving and try to relate to them at their level. I also try to make every day a fun learning experience. I am not afraid to get my hands dirty. In the summer you can find me on the ground catching insects, teaching the children how to fish, or catching bullfrogs/ turtles to study (catch and release). I am a big nature-lover. I am an avid fisher-woman, excellent swimmer and horseback-rider. My hobby is training/entering my German Shepherd Dogs in Obedience/Conformation Competition). My previous 14 year old female Lexxi, was a UKC Champion, who held 5 titles and 44 awards. She also did therapy work. I’ve also owned cats, ferrets, guinea pigs, rabbits, and a cockatiel named SpongeBob! Although I am no "spring chicken" so to speak, don’t let my age deter you. I am high energy and fit, working 50-60 hours a week caring for children. On the weekends, when I’m not working, you’ll find me running around the dog show ring, or practicing agility. My current 7 month old Kasha, is working on her AKC obedience titles. She has some big paws to fill! I have a Law Enforcement/Animal Control Officer, a Medical/ Medical Computer Systems background and have also worked in the Corporate world. All of those jobs I really enjoyed. But I’m completely happy and comfortable in a private/domestic setting taking care of children and managing a household. I excel at ensuring that the household is running smoothly, and I like putting my excellent organizational skills to work. It is a very gratifying experience for me. To be successful, there needs to be teamwork and open communication. I’m a firm believer in consistency and structure... I’m professional, comical, considerate of others, a bit of a neat freak and a little bit of a workaholic; and 100% dependable! I am also a parent, although my daughter is much, much older. I’m a long time Sittercity member. I recently left my Nanny position of over 8 years in River Forest. Thank you for your time. I look forward to hearing from you!
