Find an after school nanny in Hometown, IL

I’m a people person through and through — caring for others has always come naturally to me. I’ve spent the past few years doing a little bit of everything: babysitting, nannying, housecleaning, organizing, and supporting families who just need that extra set of reliable hands. I’ve worked with kids of all ages, from energetic toddlers to thoughtful teens. I love finding fun ways to keep them engaged, creative, and laughing. Arts and crafts, dancing in the living room, reading storybooks with silly voices, that’s my kind of day. When it comes to cleaning and housekeeping, I’m equal parts detail oriented and easygoing. I actually enjoy bringing order and sparkle back into a space , there’s something so satisfying about making a home feel peaceful again. I’m big on communication and always check in to make sure things are done the way you like them. I think everyone deserves to feel seen, safe, and respected. And if there’s a pet in the house, even better! I’m the type who talks to animals like they understand every word. People usually describe me as dependable, kind, and upbeat. I’m the person who shows up on time, keeps a positive attitude, and genuinely cares about the people (and pets!). At the end of the day, my goal is simple: to make life a little easier, a little cleaner, and a lot brighter for the families I work with.

With 7 years of hands-on childcare experience and as a mom to a wonderful 4-year-old, I bring both professional knowledge and heartfelt understanding to every family I work with. I’m highly creative and artistic, and I love planning age-appropriate games, crafts, and activities that encourage learning, imagination, and confidence. I’ve supported many families with multiple children, so I’m comfortable managing different personalities, routines, and needs with patience and positivity. My personality is quirky, bubbly, and warm, which helps me quickly build strong connections with children while creating a safe, joyful environment. I believe in nurturing trust while setting healthy boundaries in a caring and compassionate way, helping children feel secure, respected, and supported as they grow.

Hello, my name is Angelica. I was born and raised in Chicago. I am mother of 2 myself and love my daughters with all my being. I consider myself to be a very patient person. I think that’s something that’s important when it comes to being a caregiver and not only that, I enjoy being able to connect with kids and help them grow and succeed as they get older. I have a lot of experience when it comes to kids, it is something that I enjoy doing and I wouldn’t want it any other way.

Hello! My name is Aysha. I’m an undergraduate at DePaul University pursing a psychology degree, but outside of that and I’ve been working in childcare for 3-4 years. Since high school (2019) I’ve been tutoring children ages 12-18 from everything from algebra to trigonometry and even some language classes. Directly after graduating from highschool I’ve worked as an assistant teacher for It Takes a Village Family of schools where I was an assistant teacher/after school mentor for 3rd and fourth graders. Here’s where I recovered most of my early childhood learning credits as well as where I became CPR/First Aid Certified and received certificates for working with older youth. Due to commuting times however, I decided to work in more part-time daycare positions. That were more college schedule friendly. For around a year now I’ve been working in daycare facilities through an app called Tandem. Working with smaller children comes more naturally to be (being an eldest of 5) and toddler-aged children and I follow of routine/pattern which I find works well with my natural abilities. Through tandem I also took classes in preventing sudden infant death and shaken baby syndrome. By working with Tandem I am also required to be consistently up to date with my TDAP, COVID, and Flu vaccines. Outside of childcare I would call myself very math/science inclined. Currently I’m a statistics tutor at DePaul but I’m also a French minor and would love to share my love of language/culture with your child. But I’m also a big fan of arts/crafts, including painting/drawing, so whatever your kid is into, I’m sure we can find common ground in some way. My plan after college is to become a child psychologist so this is all really in my field of interest! Overall I consider myself a very dynamic caregiver with a lot of experience and ambition and potential to improve. And if chosen, I would love to be an addition to your family’s dynamic or even just help to lighten your load on a date night. Please ask me for my reference list or inquire more, I’m always happy to share!
