Find experienced nannies in Rockton, IL

Hello parents! My experience includes nannying for infants from the newborn stage through 1 year of age (including twins experience) and being a daycare assistant teacher for kiddos aged 2 to 3 years old. I am also experienced in school-age pickups/dropoffs, homework help, and after-school routine management. Most recently, I have been an after-school elementary youth instructor on-site with the Rockford and Harlem Public School District. My approach with your children is loving and caring as if they are my own while maintaining the rules you set as the parent. The basis of my personalized approach is to ensure your kids still meet their emotional, developmental, and psychological goals as if in the parent's care. My experience caring for children with special needs has also greatly benefited my comfort and confidence in childcare. I myself have a nonverbal younger sister with severe disabilities. My care for her has sharpened my attentiveness and understanding of the needs of infants and young children, as well as comfort in activities like bathing, dressing, feeding, or entertaining—and not being afraid of handling messy accidents. I am the oldest child of four, so naturally enjoy caring for others and will feel fulfilled being a helping hand to your family. No job is too big or small, and I often go above and beyond to assist in cooking, housekeeping, or pet care. Please reach out and feel free to ask questions or verbalize any concerns. I’m excited to speak with you! (I am CPR/AED/First Aid Certified and fully vaccinated against COVID-19, preferring an environment in which others are too, however, am comfortable masking at any point and for any period of time.)

Hello! My name is Amorin, I live in the downtown beloit area and I am a seasonal farmworker as the head chef at Kinnikinnick Farms. I have two sons (ages 2 and 5) that me and the father of my children split custody with. His days are wed-friday so those days work best for me to care for your child earlier then 9 am. I have CPR/Heimlich and First Aid certification and I love all fur babies so I would have no problem working in a household with animals.

Hi! I have been a babysitter during my school years for about the past 9 years. I love working with kids and being able to watch them grow into the little person they’re going to be. I look forward to working with you and your family in the future!

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!

Hi! My name is Sharon and I am a nanny of 4 years who truly enjoys helping children learn, grow, and feel supported. Families I’ve worked with describe me as patient, nurturing, and dependable. I take pride in creating a safe, engaging environment where kids can thrive, and parents feel confident that their children are well cared for. I pay close attention to each child’s personalities, and I try my best to find ways to make everyday activities fun and meaningful. Cleaning up might sound like a lot of work, but a game of Simon Says, or a toy scavenger hunt is always an easy way to make helping out fun! In addition to keeping your children safe and having fun, I know consistency is a valuable part of a healthy upbringing. Reliability is very important to me—I show up on time, stay organized, and communicate clearly so families know they can always count on me. My goal is to be not only a babysitter but a positive, trusted part of your family’s daily life.

Hi, I'm Lily! I’m 26 and a mom to 3. I have a 6 1/2 year old, 3 year old & 11 mo old. I also have 7 nieces and nephews ages 3-12 that I've been watching since I was seven. I enjoy arts and crafts and playing games outside. I'm CPR & First Aid certified and I also have my ECE 1 certification. I prefer to watch children in my home. If you have any questions feel free to reach out and I'd love to answer them. I hope to hear from you soon!

I love working with kids/children because they bring a different kind of joy people look for, kids aren’t the easiest, they aren’t always the calmest but kids are special and can have a great impact on your life. It’s also a dream career of mine to work in the nursing field as a Nic-u nurse right now I am a student at tricoci to be an esthetician Monday-Friday 5pm-10pm, but will be going back to school again to get my main goal and main degree! I have been babysitting since I was 13 years old or younger if I may remember my mom has ran a daycare/foster care program for yearssss, she’s adopted kids, she’s took in kids who are homeless and etc for years, I’ve always been a big help, took care of them plenty days she wasn’t available and or even with elderly people! What sets me apart is it’s not just about the money, it’s not just about being the best it’s about making sure the kids feel the love and are comfortable with you, knowing they not only see you but appreciate you and or know that they can trust you! I am 21 years old, my birthday is August 25th, I am working towards getting me a car so I can be able to also have a car for if I needed to take the kids anywhere, I am also pregnant with beautiful twin boys and trying to provide for them !

With 7 years experience I’m all about having fun while helping children grow. I have both daycare setting experience and private nanny. Most experience falling into newborn to age 4. I have CPR and first aid training and teacher credentials until age 6. Feel free to contact me for references or if you have any questions!
