Chanel  H., Child Care in Poplar Grove, IL 61065 with 7 years of paid experience

Hello loves I have been babysitting for the past 6-7 years for many different families and would love to care for your little one too! I’m currently in school attending RockValley College for psychology and child development and because I love children so much I feel I learn better about them from being around them! I always have trouble expressing myself and by watching your children I can learn from them, as they learn from me!

I have been providing childcare for over 20 years. I have three children of my own ages 19,13, & 10. I also have 3 nieces & 3 nephews whom I have taken care of many times and we are always together.  They love their "T T Kesh". My home has always been full of children.  I have taken several childcare courses and participated in a number of childcare seminars. I am CPR & 1st Aid certified. I hold a certificate in Special Care Training. In 2000, I became a license exempt childcare provider in my home because I wanted to be home with my children. I've cared for 6 children at one time. Currently, I work as an Early Childhood Teacher Paraprofessional at Fairview Early Childhood Center. Along with my lead teacher, I am responsible for 20 students per am, pm, and afternoon bussing schedule.

Claudette K., Child Care in Poplar Grove, IL 61065 with 4 years of paid experience

Hi! I'm Claudette, a dedicated and experienced nanny with over 4 years of hands-on childcare experience. I previously led the K–1st grade classroom at the Rockford Boys and Girls Club, where I created engaging, safe, and nurturing environments for young learners. I'm CPR and First Aid certified, and I’ve successfully potty trained over three children. I believe in building real connections with the kids I care for—not just supervising them, but genuinely sharing in their day. My goal is always to create a space where children feel safe, supported, and inspired to learn and grow. Whether we're diving into a fun craft, exploring outdoors, or working through a new skill, I bring patience, joy, and structure to every moment.
