Claire D., Nanny in Swansea, IL 62226 with 17 years of paid experience

I have been working with children professionally as a full time nanny for the past 23 years. I have extensive experience with newborns, infants, toddlers, and preschoolers, including experience with twins and in nanny shares. I love to form a bond with the children I work with; I have stayed with most of my nanny families from when their child was a newborn or infant until they began preschool, 2 to 3 years later. I love spending time with kids; they always keep me on my toes! I really enjoy reading books, singing and playing with babies and young children, and taking them out to the park on a nice day. I also incorporate my love of animals and nature in our day, as I love to teach children about the living world around them, and help to bring out their inner scientist. I grew up in the Northern Virginia area just outside of Washington DC; I got my AS at NVCC, before finishing up my BS in Biology at George Mason University. I lived in Portland, OR for over 10 years, before moving to Collinsville, IL in August 2022. In my free time I bike, hike, swim, practice yoga, and cook healthy meals.

Alexx H., Nanny in Swansea, IL 62226 with 2 years of paid experience

Howdy! I'm Alexx the loving experienced sitter and preschool teacher! I’m currently a full-time preschool teacher in the toddler room entering my second year, and I’m also pursuing my bachelor’s degree in Child Development. Caring for children is more than just a job to me, it’s part of my family legacy. Both my mother and grandmother were preschool teachers, and I’m proud to continue in their footsteps. On the topic of family I come from a big one! I have babysat all 17 of my younger cousins, nieces and nephew's over the years so I’m very comfortable juggling multiple kiddos and meeting each child’s unique needs. I’m CPR certified (infant/child and adult), and while I don’t own a car, I do have a valid driver’s license and am happy to drive if needed. Pets are no problem I’m a big animal lover! I grew up with dogs and currently have two cats. Before teaching, I was a certified housekeeper for two years, so you can count on me to keep things clean, organized, and toys put away. I bring patience, energy, and genuine care to every family I work with. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and provide a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for your little ones!

Caring for little ones is something that I love doing. It has always been a great desire of mine to be a helping hand and to see others smile. What would be a greater way to help than to assist in caring for children and giving them the love that they deserve.

Hannah B., Nanny in Swansea, IL 62226 with 5 years of paid experience

With over 5 years of paid childcare experience, and 3 years of elementary/middle school tutoring experience, I have grown to love working with children. My favorite environment where I got to interact with young learners was when I worked at a local library. It was so fulfilling to help kids research and find books in their topic of interest. I would love the opportunity to get to know you and your little ones, and to see how I may best care for them!

Samantha S., Nanny in Swansea, IL 62226 with 7 years of paid experience

Hello! My name is Samantha! I currently work as a CPR certified personal trainer with a Bachelor's in Foods and Nutrition from SDSU. Despite my current field in health and nutrition, I have worked with kids since i before I was 13 years old. Most of my experience has been volunteer through my churches, but I also have years worth of babysitting experiencing kids of different ages. I also have experience as a tutor. When I was in junior high, I used to help out with the preschool and toddler classes at church. By the time I was 13, I was a teacher for the preschool class. I did this for five years, and I often babysat for the kids in my class as well. It broke my heart to say goodbye to all of my students when I moved to San Diego to pursue a degree in nutrition. After moving to San Diego, I spent a couple of years working in the 2 year old class at my church. I had to stop when the church closed down. The last couple years have been focused entirely on my degree. However, I really miss working with kids. I enjoys making up fun games to play and listening to their crazy made up stories. I know how hard it can be to pick a sitter for your child. I would love to meet up with you in person and let you interview me so that you can feel more comfortable.

Haleigh S., Nanny in Swansea, IL 62226 with 2 years of paid experience

Hello! I've been work with kids since I was about 12 years old and in professional childcare for about 2 years now. I've worked as a teacher's assistant in two facilities, one elementary/middle school (Hanrahan Elementary), one preschool/infant care (Little Sunshines Playhouse), and a week-long stay-away summer camp with high schoolers (Kids Across America). I'm CPR certified through the American Heart Association and have put those skills to use before. I've also owned pets (cats, dogs, and fish), so I'm more than willing to work with kids and animals! Alongside my prior experience, I'm in the process of getting my education degree/teaching license! Lastly, for your kids with special health needs, I have experience in special needs children and specific medication administration as I have a chronic illness as well! Thank you for your consideration!
