Sophia is awesome! She is warm, super creative, reliable, and playful, and she’s open to working with your family in any way you need. She was a star in getting my Kindergartener up and running with remote learning, no easy task for my strong-spirited boy.

Hello! My name is Lisa,I have been working with children for over 20 years, 15 as a full time private nanny. I am CPR and first aid certified, have taken many early childhood education college courses (CDA), and have a clean driving record. I am also fully vaccinated. I am married without children of my own, so I can be very flexible with my schedule as long as it's full time. I have worked in Caledonia, St. Charles, Wilmette Palatine,Wheeling,Arlington Heights, and currently in Inverness. I have fantastic references from many former employers (as their full time nanny) who can assure you that I am never late, always early. Being a nanny is not just a job to me,it's my career,and I take that responsibility seriously. I enjoy working closely with parents to provide the best care possible for their children. My goals are to meet the physical, emotional, educational, and social needs for the children to thrive and be happy. I love indoor play (art projects, pretend play,dancing,ect.) And activities outside of the home. Parks,library,classes,Gymborree, and any other activities that sound fun and/or educational. I have a lot of experience, and I'm game for pretty much anything! I have experience with ages 2 months to 12 years, and that includes watching siblings of different ages. The family that I am currently working for has twins. My 3rd set of twins! I have been with this family for almost 5 years and the girls are going off to full time school in August. I have always had a commute to work, which I'm fine with. I have never chosen a family to work for based upon where they live. I am fortunate that I have always followed my instincts and chosen to work for families who I, and the families,believe is the perfect fit. I would love the opportunity to chat and hear more about your family and share more about myself with you! Thank you for your time, Lisa Feel free to call me at 630-779-1431

I have experience feeding babies formula/breast milk, tummy time, rocking them to sleep, and helping with sleep training and potty training.

Angela is great with kids. She is always calm and collected even in the most hectic situations. My kids love her and love to play with her. She is very responsible and shows up on-time and keeps you informed as to what is going on. I have 3 kids under 3 and it feels like she could handle even more.

We are thrilled to share our experience with Ruth, who has been an exceptional caregiver for our toddler son. From the moment she joined us, she has consistently demonstrated professionalism, kindness, and a genuine love for children. Ruth has a remarkable ability to connect with kids, making them feel comfortable and valued. She engages them in creative and educational activities that not only entertain but also contribute to their development. Her patience and understanding are truly commendable, especially when handling the occasional tantrum or two. One of the things we appreciate most about Ruth is her reliability and punctuality. She has always been there when we needed her, often going above and beyond to accommodate our schedules. We will definitely recommend her services if you're looking for a nanny/sitter for your child.

Hello! My name is Maia, I am 22 years old I’m the oldest in my family by a big age gap, so taking care of kids has always been second nature to me. I have three younger siblings and a bunch of cousins—all age 12 and under—so I’ve been surrounded by little ones my whole life. I’ve been babysitting for family, neighbors, and family friends for years and truly love spending time with kids. Whether it’s helping with homework, keeping them entertained, or making sure they’re safe and happy, I always treat every child like family.

As long as I can remember, I've always been around kids. I became a mother's helper at a young age, and started babysitting around 5th grade. That seems like forever ago! I continued to babysit regularly through high school. After college, I was a nanny for a couple of years. I now work at a Day Care Center. I'm a fun, energetic person who loves kids! I am back in school for my Early Childhood Education certification (which I will earn December 2015). My schedule will change slightly until then as a new semester begins, but outside of that, I am very flexible. I am First Aid Certified, and with the expected ECE certification in fall, I will be CPR Certified too! :)

I am a huge believer in educational play and activities. We enjoy doing crafts, baking, cooking and taking nature adventures dancing and singing too. I believe in enriching a child's days as they play. I love getting down and dirty, whether it be in the sand box, finger painting or doing crafts. I am able to help with homework and school projects. I encourage children to participate in all the daily activities including baking and cooking. I provide healthy snacks and a place to rest. Meals will be provided. Pet care is also available. Overall we have fun. Thank you for taking the time to get to know me. Eva
