I’ve used Kimberly many times over the last 2 years and have had a great experience. My child has a lot of fun with her and looks forward to her sitting. No issues going out for the evening, and extending hours later or asking for earlier. Prompt responses on texts, calls and communicates clearly any issues. Would recommend and I plan to use again.

Dejanique W., Nanny in Elsah, IL 62028 with 8 years of paid experience

Hi families! 💕 As of now, I’m available for overnights Mon-Sun, late evenings, & Sat-Sun mornings. I’m also available for date nights & occasional babysitting. I’m so excited to connect with you! I’m currently a substitute teacher & absolutely love working w/kids—helping them learn, grow & have fun in a safe, caring environment. I bring patience, creativity & a positive attitude every day, whether we’re doing crafts, playing outside or learning something new. I’d love to support a family looking for an overnight/late evening nanny, babysitter or someone to call for date nights. I’m dependable, engaging & genuinely invested in children’s well-being. I’m lovable, energetic & love to have fun! I have a 10 yr old myself who brings me so much joy & happiness, so I know the ins & outs of caring for kids. I currently substitute when teachers call off, which allows me to work my own schedule, but I’m looking for stability—something FT or PT in the same field. I’m looking to be your perfect nanny since I already have advanced experience. I’d love to spend my time watching, caring for & teaching kids. I have experience watching 2 kids over the summer until they got older, & I can provide their family as a reference. I also love helping the elderly in my community & volunteering. I took a Child Development class in high school in 2013. After graduating, I worked as a Direct Support Professional & Personal Care Attendant helping individuals w/disabilities. Throughout the yrs, I’ve earned Mandt Training, CPR & First Aid, Substitute Teaching & Med Level 1. These certificates are currently active & I can provide proof. Caring for kids & adults isn’t just a job to me—it’s my passion. ❤️ When I was younger, I participated in the Big Brothers Big Sisters program. I graduated from the program & currently volunteer. I’ve also kept a connection w/my mentor, who was my Big Sister when I was younger. She is now a lawyer & can provide a great professional character reference for me. If you think I might be a good fit for your family, I’d be so happy to chat more! 😊
