Hello.  I have been in the childcare field for over 28 years specializing in providing the best care for your child/children while parents are working and/or attending school.  I provide "hands-on" and nuture as I feel this is very important.  I have specialized training in the fields of asthma, special needs, child abuse, sexual abuse, cpr/first aid certification as well as Child Development.  I work with children who have speech impairments, learning disabilities as well as teaching pre-school for chidren getting ready for kindergarden. I provide transportation to schools - District 3 (Beach Park Schools) and District 6 (Zion Schools) if needed.  I provide back-up care, sick care as well as vacation/summer care.  Nothing is more rewarding then having one of your daycare children comeup to you at the end of the day and say "I love you Miss Jan - your the best" with a hug/kiss.  It makes my job so rewarding.  I have had children from newborn to middle school who often bring up things that had happened (potty training, that special birthday party, stickers for good deeds) which often makes me feel that all my work has made this child excel in life and its a wonderful feeling.

Hi! I graduated from Drake University with a BS in psychology and I also have an associates degree in criminal justice. I currently live in Vernon Hills with my 3 year old daughter and our two dogs. I LOVE to cook healthy and colorful meals. I am CPR and CPI certified, and have experience with autism and special needs. I work for TrueNorth full time during the school year as an RBT, and also work part time as a program assistant for NSSRA and an autism services clinic as an RBT. I am currently looking for summer or weekend work, but have some flexibility to fill in for last minute needs during the week. I have over 20 years experience in childcare, 13 of which I worked as a nanny. I have a long history with multiple families in the area as a nanny, working overnights, filling in when caregivers are on vacation, and working weekends, and can provide multiple references. I love arts and crafts, spending time outdoors, and playing games. If you have any questions, feel free to message me!  

With over nine years of hands-on experience caring for children from toddlerhood through grade school—including children with autism and diverse developmental needs—I bring a calm, nurturing, and structured approach to every family I support. I’ve worked with a wide range of families, from busy after-school schedules to full-time, live-in nanny roles. Whether helping siblings navigate sibling dynamics, organizing household routines, or providing one-on-one behavioral support in the classroom, I’m committed to creating safe, enriching environments where children thrive.

Hi! My name is Danni Alvarez, I am 29 years old and I have been worked with children for the last 10 years. With over ten years of experience nurturing, guiding, and educating children—as a nanny, day camp counselor, and most recently a lead teacher at Champions—I’ve developed a deep passion for creating warm, engaging, and supportive environments where children thrive. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working with kids of various ages and backgrounds. Whether leading a classroom, planning enriching activities, or supporting a child one-on-one, I strive to foster curiosity, confidence, and kindness. I also speak Spanish fluently and have had experience teaching that to babies and toddlers! My time at Champions especially strengthened my skills in classroom management, curriculum planning, and collaborative teamwork with fellow educators and families. What I love most about working with children is seeing the world through their eyes—the joy in small discoveries, the power of encouragement, and the importance of consistency and care. I bring patience, creativity, and genuine enthusiasm to every role, and I’m excited about the possibility of contributing to your family! Thank you for considering my application.

Hello dear parents, I am looking for an occasional, one time or weekend nights babysitting job. I have over 10 years of experience with children in ages ranging from newborn/infants to preteens. I consider myself a loving, honest, energetic, respectable, reliable, and organized person. I'm non-smoker and pet-friendly.  

I have many years of experience with children in a wide range of settings, including many years of babysitting for families in their homes, working as a summer camp counselor, as an assistant teacher in a daycare, and volunteering in two elementary schools. I raised my own son and I occasionally watch my 4 and 6 year old grandsons. In the past year and a half I have watched a 2.5 year old boy, an infant girl from age 3 to 6 months, a baby boy from 7 to 10 months, and an 8 year old girl. I completed a pediatric first aid and CPR class in November 2023. When I am watching children I do not use my cell phone (other than in case of emergency or if I need to schedule an appointment) as I want to give the kids my undivided attention. I especially enjoy reading to children, doing art projects together, and taking nature walks. I am very energetic, and on days when I am not babysitting, I typically take 4 - 5 mile walks along the lake. I am very happy to provide professional and personal references. Among the parents from whom I can provide references are a neonatologist, a professor of psychology, a nurse, and an elementary schoolteacher. As a caregiver, I am highly reliable, kind, warm, and fun. I love both kids and dogs. My schedule is typically very flexible, and I can often make myself available for last-minute requests. Thank you. Rosanne
