Hey families. I am a Nanny with over 13 years of experience caring for children ranging from newborns to teenagers. I have a college education in childcare development and I bring a great amount of knowledge and care to each role. I was a day care teacher in the UK and took care of babies from new born to 5 years old and after school programs where children aged up to 7. Jan 2022- Oct 2023, I was as an au pair for almost 2 years and I currently work with multiple families one being everyday and others being occasionally. I am very good at multitasking many children at one since working in day cares required so. My role includes a lot of responsibilities including school drop offs, driving to activities, laundry, sleep training, dinner preps, bottle cleaning/feeding and more.

Hi! My name is Alexis I am currently a college student studying psychology. I have hands-on experience working as an assistant caregiver for foster care families, where I developed strong skills in nurturing, supporting, and engaging with children from various backgrounds. On top of that, I have experience babysitting elementary-age kids. In addition to my caregiving experience, I am a certified child tutor, which allows me to assist children with their educational needs in a fun and interactive way. I also have over 100 hours of volunteer experience at the Family Literacy Center, where I worked with children and families to promote learning and literacy development. I am committed to providing a safe, supportive, and positive environment for your children, whether helping with homework, engaging in creative activities, or simply offering a caring presence when you need a break. I look forward to the opportunity to work with your family!

Hi I’m Sara! I have a deep passion when it comes to working with kids. I am a Montessori preschool teacher and have been nannying for over a decade. I think each kid has something special, goofy, fun and curious about them which is why I love getting to know and care for each and every one. I value compassion, structure, and creativity and I believe that is reflected in the way I interact with children.

I’m someone who genuinely loves working with children and helping families feel supported and at ease. I enjoy being a sitter because every day is different. Children are curious, creative, and full of energy, and I love being part of their growth. Whether it’s helping with homework, playing imaginative games, or maintaining a calm bedtime routine, I’m happiest when I’m creating a safe and positive environment for kids to thrive. In Regards to my skills, I am a CPR and First Aid certified student at Oakland Community College. I also have strong communication and patience with children of all ages. I have participated in tutoring at my local church as well as kids athletic training at KidStrong Bloomfield Hills. When it comes to challenges with children I am beyond well versed. I have practiced ensuring bedtime routines, homework help, and basic tutoring with family members of a wide age range. I can assure I am reliable, punctual, and organized individual. I also have more than 12 year experience of preparing family-style meals. I would love nothing more than to further my skills and experience with caring for amazing children and families!

I grew up in a very large family, growing up I always had a cousin or relative watching us and it helped all of us kids feel safe. That’s what I want to be for your kids, someone that makes them feel safe. I also love the outdoors and want to spend as much time outside as possible. I babysat growing up and I have also worked at a pediatric dental office. Working with kids all day really showed me how different everyone can be. Each kid has their own personality and things they may struggle with but I am willing to help them be the best version of themself. While working in a pediatric office I became CPR certified for all ages and know the basics of first aid as well.

Hi, I'm Hanna! I'm looking for a new family to care for after I move to Chicago within the next 2 weeks. I've been nannying now for 7 years and have been with my current family for 2 years. Right now, I'm a nanny/house manager for a lovely family who has 3yo twins, a 5yo, and sometimes their cousin is there who's 2. We enjoy going to parks, splash pads, the zoo, pool, indoor play areas, running through the sprinkler in their backyard, walks with their large dog, afterschool activities, arts and crafts, sensory bins, dance parties, read books, build forts, sort things, fine motor skills focused tasks, and pretend we're dinosaurs while playing hide and seek! Some of the house management tasks I do include grocery shopping, meal prep, basic cleaning, family laundry, running errands, organizational projects, getting rid of outgrown kids' clothes/toys/books, rotating toy bins, deep cleaning/getting gas/maintenance done on their car I drive, packing/unpacking for trips, receiving packages/putting things away, loading/unloading the dishwasher, and more. In addition to nannying for various other families, I've also been an Assistant Teacher at a daycare, and absolutely loved it! There, I took care of the infants and sometimes the toddlers. The room ratio was 1 adult:4 infants/toddlers, so I was definitely busy! My duties included feedings, introducing infants to solids, meal/snack time, diaper changes, soothing them for naps, narrating things throughout the day, listening to music, tummy time, finger painting, potty training the toddlers, play time indoors and outdoors, walks, maintaining a clean and uplifting environment, and sticking to a schedule/filling out daily sheets for each child. I'm CPR/First Aid certified, have a bachelor's degree from Michigan State University, am not a smoker, have a reliable car, up-to-date on vaccines, have special needs experience, and recently worked with a physical/speech therapist who came weekly for the twin toddlers. I have experience with ages 3mo-11yo, and all of the jobs I've had have been with multiple children. I'm kind-hearted, reliable, nurturing, trustworthy, loving, responsible, fun, and encouraging. I have such a strong passion for caring for kids, they are truly so special! I applied to an apartment recently in Chicago, so now I just need to secure a job in order to move. I also have a resume/references. I can't wait to continue my nannying journey because so far it's been nothing but amazing and so rewarding! :)
