Bonnie H.
- 18 years paid experience
- < 1 mile
Hello, my name is Bonnie. I'm 42 years old and I’ve been a babysitter for over 18 years. The most rewarding part of being a babysitter, for me, is watching and supporting children as they discover and develop their personalities. Some of my responsibilities have included: continuous care for families with 1-5 children, providing transportation to/from school and after school activities, art projects, trips to the library and park, bottle prep and feeding, cleaning dishes, laundry, baking, and meal preparation/light cooking. I'm seeking an opportunity to join another family in mid August or early September. I will provide the attentive, loving care you desire for your infants and/or children.

Bonnie took care of our 1 year old daughter Addison and she was truly amazing. She seemed to care for her as if she were her own. Addison is our first and only child and yet, we felt at ease immediately trusting Bonnie with her. She was with us full-time, Monday - Friday, and our daughter was excited to see her every time she came to the house. Whether it was helping with our dogs, cleaning up in the house or changing her schedule, Bonnie was always agreeable and helpful in our home. She taught Addison what she could and showed great patience on trying days. We would recommend her highly to anyone looking for a nanny. She really cares about children and seems to have a perfect disposition for the job. We really appreciated everything about Bonnie and her care for our daughter.

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.

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.

Hi! My name is Bella. I am an occupational therapist working in schools. I have been babysitting since I was 14 years old and have a 10 year old kiddo. I absolutely LOVE children and try my best to ensure they get to live their best lives full of happiness, love, and their needs met! I value routines, but also encourage flexibility. I am looking for a summer job May- August. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I was also a lifeguard for 3 years and taught swim lessons before going into OT, so I am very comfortable around water safety.

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

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! :)

Hi families! My name is Anadelis & I’m 32 years old. I live in Hampshire, IL. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology & I’m passionate about supporting children’s emotional, behavioral, & developmental growth. I bring hands-on experience working with infants through young adults, including children with special needs, where I provided 1:1 support, implemented behavior plans, & helped create safe, structured, and nurturing environments. I would describe myself as warm, patient, dependable, and very nurturing. I grew up in a close-knit family and helped care for my younger siblings, which naturally shaped my love for caregiving. In my free time, I love cooking, spending time outdoors, and being with my partner, family, and our two cats. I’m also bilingual (English/Spanish), which I’m happy to incorporate into childcare if desired. I would love the opportunity to support your family & provide a safe, engaging, & loving environment for your children. I look forward to connecting with you!

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.
