Looking for work as a babysitter or nanny

  • 8 years paid experience
  • Babysitter in Palatine, IL 60067

Meet Shannon

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

My nanny experience started early in high school and parlayed into college while studying Health and Fitness at Purdue University. I was a Nanny/Babysitter for numerous families in the Purdue Community with ages ranging from infants to young teens. Being outdoors, exercise, nutritious cooking and art/painting are a few of my hobbies that I would love to incorporate into our daily schedule with the kids! I'm a huge animal lover as well. My experience with all age groups (twins and special needs) allows me to be flexible and understanding while knowing when to take action as well. I'm looking for a part-time nanny position aside from my nutrition and lifestyle blog career (theglowingfridge.com).

Shannon is an excellent Nanny! She worked for us twice a week for almost a year. She is attentive, patient, caring, responsible, and always on time. She took wonderful care of my infant twins. I highly recommend her!
