Find an after school nanny in Chicago, IL

I have over six years of experience caring for children in the U.S., especially newborns and toddlers. I cared for two American girls from the time they were babies, helping them grow in a safe, loving, and nurturing environment. Through our daily routine, they naturally learned Spanish with me—even their mom picked up the language! I am CPR and First Aid certified, and I have excellent references available. I prefer full-time positions where I can fully support the child and the family. I love reading stories, sitting on the floor to play, and joining kids in their world. I also enjoy going to the park and encouraging active, creative play. I’m calm, patient, and fully focused on the child’s well-being. I understand their developmental needs and routines, and I’m happy to help with feeding, diapering, naps, and keeping their space clean and organized. In addition to childcare, I have worked as a housekeeper and live-in caregiver for seniors, which helped me become responsible, respectful, and detail-oriented. I’m originally from Argentina, lived 12 years in Spain, and have been in the U.S. for 7 years. I speak Spanish fluently and I’m improving my English every day. Families describe me as warm, trustworthy, and attentive. I truly enjoy giving children a joyful, safe space to grow and helping parents feel supported and at ease.

I’m an experienced and reliable caregiver with a strong background in both childcare and household support. I’ve spent years caring for children of all ages. Growing up my sister was 10 years younger than me, so I had many years babysitting/caring for her and her neighborhood friends. I also worked at a daycare program for 2 years. I love creating a safe, fun, and engaging environment, whether that’s helping with homework, planning activities, or keeping daily routines on track. I’m comfortable with pets as well (I have a husky of my own). Also, happy to help with light housework or whatever your family needs to feel supported!

Childcare has always been part of my life- being 1 of 5 kids, I would often care for my younger siblings and their friends, as well as our household pets. I then went on to hold summer babysitting roles between college summers, was a long term tutor, co-ran a city summer city, and for the past 4 years was a High School JV Women's Soccer Coach. I love supporting families and making a positive impact on young people's lives. I am patient, calm, creative, and always ready to engage through sports, games or crafts. I hold a college degree and maintain current CPR training. I'm comfortable caring for up to three children (negotiable for more) across all age groups and am happy to assist with meal preparation, carpooling, homework help, and light housekeeping. I prioritize clear communication and will follow your lead regarding household rules. I look forward to connecting and chatting more!

Hello, my name is Elisabeth. I am 31. I am passionate about being a caregiver and taking care of the home as well, because I thoroughly enjoy the process of being completely involved and supportive. My experience begins with six months of age up to 15 years of age. I have as well worked with a child who had severe autism and physical and intellectual disability. I’ve been a Nanny and house manager, and have primarily worked in Tulsa, Oklahoma; Phoenix, Arizona; Salt Lake City, Utah; and Los Angeles, California. I am new to Chicago and live in Rogers Park, so I’m happy to commute! I do not have a car at the moment. I am great with cooking as well as cleaning; and I am very patient, nurturing, supportive, and kind.

Nurturing children and watching them blossom is my greatest joy. For 15 years, I've dedicated myself to providing enriching care for children of all ages, from infants to teenagers. My graduate degree equipped me with a strong foundation, further fueling my passion for fostering growth and development. I'm empathetic, adaptable, and strive to create a supportive environment. I follow the parents' lead on household rules and always communicate updates using their preferred method. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games. I'm comfortable caring for up to 3 children and am certified in CPR and First Aid. Supporting families and being a reliable caregiver is important to me. I hope to bring my patience, creativity, and love for learning to your family!
