Hello Families! I am an experienced nanny looking for a part-time position, in your home or mine. I have a two-year-old daughter who will be in my care as well. During college, I worked as a nanny for four great families. Soon after graduation, I was married and had my first child. I transitioned into providing child care for other families with my daughter in tow, and with her I worked for two wonderful Crystal Lake families. On a typical day, you might find us visiting a park, taking a long walk, or bathing in a kiddie pool. Indoors and during cooler weather, we enjoy reading daily, visiting a local library (we often sign up for story-time), dancing to music, crafts for older kiddos, and sensory activities for those that are younger. If in your home, I typically take on light cooking and housework, such as laundry, vacuuming/sweeping, and dishes. My availability may change in the spring of 2018, as I am looking into attending graduate school at that time. It is possible that my schedule will remain fairly open and flexible, which is why I am seeking a part-time position that may transition just fine if/when I attend school. I live in Lake in the Hills, in the Glacier Ridge Elementary School Boundaries. I am open to a before and/or after school position in this area. Thank you for visiting my profile; I look forward to meeting you!

Haley has been an absolute joy to have in our lives. She is so flexible and helps me stay organized! The children love her and I feel safe knowing that she is watching my 2 kids. She has a dependable car, a supportive husband, and loves my children. I couldn't have asked for a better, more loving person.

My name is Maddie! I am a junior at Barrett the Honors College ASU, majoring in music therapy, with specialties in childhood development. I have 6 years of babysitting experience, including a year of overnight babysitting experience for 4 children under 4 and 2 summers of weekly nannying. Aside from my babysitting/nannying experience, my music/art experience always comes in handy to entertain younger kids :). I am the oldest child of 3 and have always had a love for taking care of others, so babysitting is a lot of fun for me. I am responsible, organized, reliable, have amazing time management, straight A’s, committed, communicative, and most importantly, kind, gentle, joyful, and energetic. I come ready to foster an engaging and comfortable environment. Feel free to reach out and get to know me a little more! I also have a sister who is a senior in highschool and happy to fill in/ has been filling in while I am at college! She has all the same experience as me. 2 babysitters in one :)

Hello! My name is Katie, I love being a sitter for children & animal children. I work full time for a community college, so my availability is mostly nights and weekends. I started babysitting when I was 14 years old. The child I was recently sitting for moved, so I'm looking for new families now. I worked as a day camp counselor and taught various park district classes including sports, art, cooking, intro to preschool. I love playing outside, going to the park, doing crafts, coloring etc.

I found Katie through a local sitter site when looking for weekend care for my then one year old son after a prior sitter didn’t work out. I interviewed several candidates looking for someone special, as my little guy has a ton of energy and personality. Katie was the perfect fit for my son, and was great at being communicative throughout the day by sending photos and little updates and needed literally zero oversight. She planned activities and outings and made sure he had lots of fun. You can tell how much she genuinely enjoys spending time with little ones. If I hadn’t relocated she’d absolutely still be my first choice!

Hi! My name is Bella. I am an occupational therapist working in schools. I have been babysitting since I was 14 years old and have a 10 year old kiddo. I absolutely LOVE children and try my best to ensure they get to live their best lives full of happiness, love, and their needs met! I value routines, but also encourage flexibility. I am looking for a summer job May- August. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I was also a lifeguard for 3 years and taught swim lessons before going into OT, so I am very comfortable around water safety.

We are thrilled to share our experience with Ruth, who has been an exceptional caregiver for our toddler son. From the moment she joined us, she has consistently demonstrated professionalism, kindness, and a genuine love for children. Ruth has a remarkable ability to connect with kids, making them feel comfortable and valued. She engages them in creative and educational activities that not only entertain but also contribute to their development. Her patience and understanding are truly commendable, especially when handling the occasional tantrum or two. One of the things we appreciate most about Ruth is her reliability and punctuality. She has always been there when we needed her, often going above and beyond to accommodate our schedules. We will definitely recommend her services if you're looking for a nanny/sitter for your child.

Angela is great with kids. She is always calm and collected even in the most hectic situations. My kids love her and love to play with her. She is very responsible and shows up on-time and keeps you informed as to what is going on. I have 3 kids under 3 and it feels like she could handle even more.

Hi! My name is Chloe Coss I am currently a senior at Prairie Ridge and I am 100% going to McHenry county college next year I plan on getting my associates in forensics and photography and moving to Orlando and becoming a crime scene investigator. I love children and I've worked around them since I was 13 years old I love going to the gym and I love being around my friends and family. I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and helping them learn, grow, and have fun in a safe environment. I’ve been around children since I was 13, and I find it really rewarding to build connections with them and be someone they feel comfortable with. Whether it’s playing games, helping with routines, or just making them smile, it’s something I truly enjoy doing.I have several years of experience working with children of different ages. I babysat for a family with three kids (ages 3, 5, and 3 months), where I helped with daily care, playtime, and routines. I also worked at Jump Zone as a party host, where I supervised children and made sure they were safe while having fun. Most recently, I worked at 2 Hours of Freedom, where I continued supervising and interacting with kids in an active environment. These experiences helped me learn how to manage groups of children and adapt to different personalities and needs.I have strong communication and patience when working with children, and I’m good at staying calm and responsible in different situations. I’m experienced in supervising kids, keeping them safe, and creating fun activities for them. I’m also very reliable, organized, and comfortable handling multiple children at once. In addition, I stay active and energetic, which helps me keep up with kids and engage with them in a positive way.

As long as I can remember, I've always been around kids. I became a mother's helper at a young age, and started babysitting around 5th grade. That seems like forever ago! I continued to babysit regularly through high school. After college, I was a nanny for a couple of years. I now work at a Day Care Center. I'm a fun, energetic person who loves kids! I am back in school for my Early Childhood Education certification (which I will earn December 2015). My schedule will change slightly until then as a new semester begins, but outside of that, I am very flexible. I am First Aid Certified, and with the expected ECE certification in fall, I will be CPR Certified too! :)
