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

I was a full time nanny for seven years for a wonderful family here in Chicago. They had three children and during my time with them the kids were ages newborn - ten years old. During that time I also babysat for dozens of other Chicago families. I genuinely enjoy the company of children! I have moved on to a career in HR, but I am always looking to make connections with new families through evening and weekend sitting. Always willing to try and accommodate short notice requests!

Hi! My name is Isabella Wergin, I am a recent graduate of Loyola Chicago living in Lakeview. I’m looking for a consistent position and a willing to start as soon as possible. I’ve nannied/ babysat for a variety of families over the past 8 years, therefore I have experience with various ages and needs. I love to facilitate creative activities that allow for use of imagination and learning. Two summers ago, I was a camp counselor at an overnight summer camp in Maine, where I was a bunk counselor and instructed tennis to children ages 4-17. This opportunity expanded my understanding in how to best engage all age groups in activities. Looking forward to meeting you!

I live in Rogers Park and have 10+ years of experience caring for kids of all ages. My passion is for storytelling and I have my MFA in Writing for the Screen + Stage from Northwestern, where I have taught screenwriting courses. I'm good at engaging kids' imaginations and letting them lead. While working on my artistic projects, I have held a part time or full-time childcare job for the last 10 years. In 2018, I was the Co-Director of Steve & Kate's Summer Camp. From 2018- present, I have been a nanny for different families in Rogers Park where I live. I prefer to work close to home, but am open to anywhere off the red line. I also have extensive experience in house cleaning, home organizing, pet care, tutoring for reading / writing, and more! I'm a team player who wants to make life easier for your family, so I'm flexible in meeting your needs. My most recent job involved being a House Manager for a family of 3. I have plenty of references from families I've worked with that I'm happy to pass along. I do not drive, but I can access most places by public transit and ride share. I'm currently looking for both PT and FT gigs. Hope to talk with you soon!
