Find an after school nanny in Chicago, IL

Hi! My name is Ajia, and I’ve spent over three years working directly with children as both a Teacher’s Assistant and an Instructor with After School Matters. Those experiences gave me the chance to work with kids of different ages, personalities, and learning styles — from helping younger students with reading and crafts to guiding older kids through creative projects and team-based activities. As a Teacher’s Assistant, I learned how to create structured, positive, and engaging classroom environments. I helped manage lessons, supported students one-on-one, and assisted with classroom organization and supervision. It taught me how to balance patience with leadership, and how to make sure every child feels included and understood. In my role as an After School Matters Instructor, I took on more responsibility by designing and leading activities that encouraged creativity, teamwork, and self-expression. I developed lesson plans, managed group dynamics, and ensured a safe space for every student to learn and have fun. I loved seeing how kids gained confidence and developed new skills over time. What I enjoy most about working with kids is how rewarding it is to watch them grow — whether it’s mastering a new skill, expressing themselves more freely, or simply feeling comfortable and happy in their environment. I bring that same care and enthusiasm into babysitting. I’m attentive, reliable, and safety-conscious, but I also know how to make things fun and engaging through games, crafts, and conversations. I’m also certified in maintaining safe supervision practices and understand the importance of good communication with both children and parents. I always aim to create a nurturing, trustworthy environment where parents feel confident and kids feel supported. Overall, my background has prepared me to not just “watch” kids, but to connect with them, support their growth, and keep them safe and happy at the same time. Babysitting, for me, isn’t just a job — it’s an opportunity to make a positive impact in a child’s day and help parents feel at ease knowing their kids are in good hands

I have worked with children for more than 8 years, from babysitting to volunteer programs to camp counseling. I bring joy, fun, structure, and attention to detail to my work with children, making the experience enjoyable and the adjustment smooth for kids and parents alike. My primary experience is with children ages 2-14, but I have occasionally worked with younger and older children, as well. Furthermore, I have more than 10 years of experience with pet sitting, becoming a reliable sitter and walker for families with dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, and other household animals. I provide more-than-minimum attention, care, and love, making sure that pets feel safe and cared for while owners are away.

Hello! My name is Lane and I am a 30-something here in Chicago. I bring four-plus years of non-profit experience as an Americorps member, connecting with middle school students, and recruiting passionate individuals for Teach For America. As a friendly and responsible caregiver, I'm dedicated to creating a nurturing and fun environment for your little ones.

Thank you for taking the time to read!

Even in my adolescence and high school career, I have been dedicated to providing the utmost care to a diverse age range of children. Whether it be from my amount of experience gathered from taking care of nieces and nephews, or from my career at the local park district, my life and resume have been filled with knowledge about childcare. I have tutored, invented games, and immersed children in Spanish. At my previous workplace, I was also CPR certified and highly trained in emergency responses regarding the assurance of child safety. When working with children, most of my coworkers and previous clients would describe me as fun-loving, proactive, engaging, and responsive. For these qualities, I was even hired as a party host previously, where I spent time refining my personality to best work alongside children. I have owned dogs for my whole life, and been responsible for walking, feeding, playing, and grooming them for roughly the same amount of time. I am open to cleaning, pet care, and childcare, so please do not be afraid to contact me about more specifics.
