To whom it may concern I am writing to express my interest in the position of Nanny. I understand from your ad you are looking for an experienced, qualified, and caring nanny. I meet all your listed requirements and believe would make a good nanny. I have years of experience as a nanny for two families. In addition to two full-time nanny positions, I have worked as a preschool and daycare teacher with children from infants to 4 and 5 years old. I love children and enjoy their company immensely and find nothing is more rewarding than taking care of them. I believe in creating a positive, happy environment for children, one in which they feel protected and can thrive.

I have been working with children my whole life, as well as raising two children of my own. I have a BS in psychology/child development from U of I, and have been a nanny, preschool teacher, child development specialist, and director of a preschool. I can’t imagine a more rewarding field. I look forward to meeting you and your little ones! *Please note: Due to an immunocompromised family member, I am unable to provide sick care. Your transparency with any illness in the household is important. Thank you!

Caring for children has always come naturally to me, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and take pride in. I love being a sitter because I know how much trust it takes to leave your little ones in someone else’s care. I do everything I can to help both children and parents feel safe, supported, and respected. Whether it’s playtime, nap time, or a challenging moment, I aim to bring calm, connection, and patience to every interaction. I was a nanny for over 5 years before transitioning into the healthcare field, where I most recently worked as a health care educator. Through both paths, one thing has always remained true: I love taking care of people. I am currently a full-time student enrolled in online courses and I’ve returned to part-time childcare. I’ve built strong relationships with families and continued with occasionally babysitting over the years. Date nights for parents are still important! I’m CPR certified and experienced with children of all ages, from infants to school-aged kids. My background in healthcare and education gives me a unique edge when it comes to attentiveness, safety, and developmental awareness. I bring a warm, grounded energy into the home, and I’m often told I’m the kind of sitter kids feel instantly comfortable around. If you’re looking for someone dependable, emotionally attuned, and genuinely passionate about caregiving, I’d love to connect with your family!
