I love working with kids because each one has always reminded me that I can learn just as much from them as they can from me, and they hold a special place in my heart. My most recent role was as a first-grade teacher, but I have experience working with all ages from infants to teenagers. I am so excited to connect with new families!

Hi, I’m Jennifer! I live in Crystal Lake and am warm, dependable, patient, and invested in the children I care for. Childcare has been part of my life since age nine, when I began caring for younger relatives, and continued through raising my three children. I have nine years of paid childcare experience: five years at KinderCare, 18 months as a live-in nanny caring for a four-year-old, and over two years providing private-family care for two young brothers. Those years are complemented by decades of hands-on experience with children. I’ve cared for infants through teenagers and enjoy learning each child’s personality, interests, humor, strengths, and challenges. I’ve supported neurodivergent children, including those with autism and ADHD, as well as children needing help with behavior, organization, emotional regulation, or transitions. My approach is patient, clear, and consistent, with room for silliness and fun! I’m comfortable managing transportation, morning and after-school routines, nap schedules, activities, homework reminders, household organization, and changing schedules. I enjoy playtime, crafts, reading, outdoor activities, and helping children build confidence and independence. I prepare simple breakfasts, sandwiches, and snacks. Before returning my focus to childcare, I spent nearly nine years at Morgan Stanley, advancing to Operations Manager while supporting high-net-worth clients. That experience strengthened my discretion, confidentiality, organization, communication, judgment, and ability to calmly manage competing priorities—skills valuable in a private home. I’m seeking a long-term position with a family that values trust, open communication, consistency, and connection. I value forming lasting bonds with children while respecting their parents’ preferences, values, privacy, and boundaries. My hours may be flexible depending on location and commute, and I’m available to start immediately. In my spare time, I enjoy crafting, supporting my sons at band and Scout activities, and spending time with family and our dogs. I’m comfortable with pets and have previously been certified in CPR and First Aid.

I have been in childcare for nearly 8 years now. I have a BA in psychology and am a certified director for Early Childhood Education. I bring a calm, patient, and professional approach to your home. I hold CPR Training and First Aid Training certifications to ensure a safe environment for children. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules and following your preferred communication method to keep you updated on your child's day. I truly look forward to becoming a trusted partner in your family.

Hi! My name is Elizabeth I'm 27 years old, and have experience as a babysitter ever since I was 15. I am fluent in Spanish and English, have a clean driving record, and also CPR certified. Some of the things I enjoy doing with children is reading, walks to the park, arts and crafts and learning new things. I would describe myself as a patient, nurturing, caring, respectful and honest person. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. Hope to hear from you soon!

Currently working full time for a family with an infant, and looking to pick up extra work on the weekends or even date nights during the week. I have experience caring for multiple children, twins, newborns, and school aged children. I’m learning how to help with daily routines and working side by side with therapists for special needs children. I do have experience with caring for multiple children at once, including twins. I love doing outdoor and indoor activities; hand painting, coloring, and reading books are a normal part of our day. My days are full of different ideas to keep creative little minds going. Having raised 2 daughters of my own, I learned that having a fun day is most important!! I became a Certified Nurse Assistant in 2005, and worked as a Patient Care Tech for about 3 years, and I am CPR certified. My experience as a Nanny includes a variety of tasks in addition to childcare, including: light housekeeping, transportation to/from school and activities, cooking, and running errands. I am extremely reliable, never calling off work, and always on time. I am also very flexible with my schedule, and can start early or stay late on short notice. I am fully vaccinated, a non-smoker, and have reliable transportation. Happy to provide detailed resume and current references upon request. Diane M

Hi! I’m Kiana, and I’ve been nannying for the past 7 years. Caring for children is truly something I love, not just a job to me. I have experience with infants, toddlers, and young children, and I strive to create a safe, loving environment where kids can learn, grow, and simply enjoy being kids. My favorite days are filled with hands-on activities like messy art, sensory play, baking, reading, music, and outdoor adventures. I love getting little ones out of the house for walks, parks, libraries, children’s museums, and playdates because I believe children learn so much through exploring the world around them. I’m CPR certified, have reliable transportation, am comfortable with pets, and have experience working alongside parents who work from home. I’m also a Christian, and my faith is an important part of my life. I volunteer with my church’s children’s ministry and strive to lead with patience, kindness, and love in the way I care for children. My goal is to become someone families can truly trust and rely on through open communication, consistency, and genuine care. I would love the opportunity to support your family and help create happy, memorable childhood moments for your little one
