I love caring for children and helping them become kind, honest, and healthy individuals. I am CPR and First Aid Certified. I have worked with children with special needs such as autism, ADHD, wheelchair users, non-verbal communication, and bathroom assistance. I have extensive experience with trauma-informed care for children. During my work at domestic violence shelters, I helped them process their changes in environment and other major life adjustments. I will tidy up and perform some light housework. You will always come home to a calm, clean environment, so all you will need to do is relax.

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.

Hi ! I'm a single mother to my daughter who is in the Physician Assistant program at Marquette. 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. I currently work part-time, so my schedule is flexible including weekdays, evenings, or weekends. To me, caring for others is very rewarding and I love what I do. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family and two cats. 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'd love to learn more about the ways I can specifically serve you and your family!

I have well over 25 years of professional Nanny/House Managing/Personal Assistant experience. I’ve taught Pre-School and Pre-School swimming. I 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 champion, holding 5 titles and 44 awards. She also did therapy work. 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. My previous 14 year old champion Lexxi, held 5 titles with 44 ribbons. My new 11 month old Kayla has some big paws to fill! I have a Law Enforcement and Medical background and have also worked in the Corporate world. All of those jobs I really enjoyed. But I am 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 possess excellent organization skills and believe in consistency and structure... I’m professional, comical, considerate of others, a bit of a neat freak and a little bit of a workaholic. I am 100% dependable! I am also a parent, although my daughter is much, much older. My profile is active, but has not been updated. My current Nanny position of 8 years is ending August 21st., 2024. Thank you for your time. I look forward to hearing from you!

I am a full-time nanny living in Chicago and I also provide babysitting services on occasion. I have been helping with childcare for my family since I was 12 years old, as the eldest of five children, three of whom are active boys. I have always enjoyed watching over children and creating a fun, safe environment for my charges. I have experience with infants, toddlers and preschool children, particularly preschool as I was an assistant Sunday school teacher for my church for six years. I also did one summer as a camp counselor for a sleep-away camp, which put me in charge of 4-8 kids 22/7. Some of my favorite activities are reading, drama and games. Generally I am a fun, easygoing sitter who enjoys playing games with the kids and making sure they have what they need. I tend to be very calm and even tempered, which helps me keep up with high-energy kids.
