Find an after school nanny in Forest Park, IL

Hello! My name is Hannah, and it is so great to virtually meet you! A bit about me: I am originally from Missouri, but moved to Chicago about 12 years ago to pursue theater and comedy in city. I am currently a working actor, but have been nannying for the past decade to supplement income. I have worked with many amazing families who I am still very close to! When I am not performing I enjoy staying very active, being outside, cooking and baking, playing and writing music, and exploring and enjoying the city with friends. I am currently looking for Part Time to Full Time work with the right family. I am also available to occasional bookings as well! I am very reliable and take my commitments with family's seriously. I like to help out my families any way that I can, whether that is helping with housework, cooking meals, organizing projects, and of course keeping their children happy and engaged! I am a strong believer in creativity and fun, and try my best to always incorporate that into time when I am working a job. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have for me, and look forward to potentially meeting your family!

Greetings! Since the age of thirteen I knew I wanted to work with children. I have been and currently am a camp counselor, lead daycare teacher, babysitter, church choir director, and Sunday School teacher. I love building relationships with young minds and supporting them as they learn to navigate the world around them. I love music, nature, traveling, and interior designing -all of which I incorporate into my babysitting routine! I am outgoing, energetic, creative, and passionate about everything I do! My fellow peers often comment on my ability to “Light up a room” given my gifts to connect with people, maintain a positive spirit, and have a contagious joy. I look forward to connecting with you! Sincerely, Laila

Hello! I recently completed medical school and looking for a part-time job or one-time jobs while prepping for my board exams. My ultimate goal is to go into family medicine.

Greetings! My name is Daniela, and I am 29 years old. I have over 8 years of experience working as a nanny and sitter for both short-term and long-term families. I view caring for children as a job that requires responsibility, diligence, patience, and, most importantly, genuine care and appreciation for both the children and their families. I truly enjoy creating a safe, nurturing, and positive environment where children can learn, grow, and have fun. As a nanny and sitter, I love engaging children in activities that are both fun and beneficial to their development, including puzzles, reading, creative activities, outdoor play, and helping with homework. I also have a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology, which has given me additional knowledge and understanding of child development, communication, emotional well-being, and creating supportive relationships with children. A few fun facts about me: I am a huge country music fan and a proud Cubs fan! I look forward to getting to know your family and creating a caring and enjoyable experience for your little ones.
