Find an after school nanny in Niles, IL

Hi, After raising two sons (both in college) and working in corporate marketing for 30 years, I'm taking some time to figure out my second act. And, I really miss having kiddos around. I enjoy spending time and even babysitting some of my friend’s children. I’m a high-energy, responsible, and fun Mom. BTW, my son has nut allergies, so I’m uniquely qualified to be very careful with food allergies. I used to be a lifeguard and swim instructor, and I have a perfect driving record. Happy to share all documents and references. Hope to hear from you! Thanks, Deanna

Hello—I’m a dependable, thoughtful caregiver with a calm, grounded presence and strong attention to detail. I bring a professional mindset to every home I work in, along with a genuine appreciation for creating environments where people (and pets) feel comfortable, supported, and well cared for. For child care, I have experience with children ages 5–12 and enjoy engaging them in reading, writing, arts and crafts, and both indoor and outdoor play. I also provide homework support, including tutoring in reading, writing, and elementary French. I’m an excellent cook and am happy to prepare nutritious, thoughtfully planned meals. I am particularly attentive to children with neurodiverse needs and understand the importance of consistency, patience, and following established routines. I’m comfortable working within specific structures or care plans to support each child’s comfort, focus, and overall well-being. For senior care, I offer warm, respectful companionship along with practical support such as meal preparation, light organization, and medication reminders. I’ve seen firsthand how meaningful it is for families to have someone they trust to step in, and I take that responsibility seriously, providing both ease for the family and genuine connection for the individual. For pet care, I have extensive experience with dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and medical needs. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding, playing, and administering medications, including injections and subcutaneous fluids. I’m at ease with large breeds and high-energy animals and have no concerns about shedding. I’m comfortable with a wide range of temperaments and energy levels; however, I am not a behavioral trainer. For the safety and well-being of both your pet and me, I do expect a baseline of manageable behavior and clear communication around any known triggers or routines. I’m always happy to follow established guidance to ensure a smooth and positive experience. Above all, I am reliable, discreet, and attentive. I understand the importance of trust when inviting someone into your home, and I aim to provide not just support but a sense of calm confidence that everything is being handled with care.

Hello, I'm Jasmine, a 26-year-old graduate from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. Recently I have been affected by the tech layoffs and my role as a UX design was affected. I'm looking for part-time work as a babysitter/nanny. There is a 1-star review on my profile, but that does not reflect my consideration of showing up on time for my appointments. Please consider my application! About me: I consider myself a patient, responsible, and creative individual. My free time is filled with activities such as painting, drawing, singing, playing tennis, learning Mandarin, and cooking. Relevant Experience: In 2020, I served as a full-time nanny for two children, ages 4 and 7, a boy and a girl. During this period, my responsibilities included making lunch, light housework, engaging in playtime, and teaching arts and crafts. If your child enjoys crafts, I'd be delighted to share these activities with them. In college, I tutored math and English at the Boys and Girls Club near my campus. Given that school is back in session, I'm enthusiastic about offering assistance with any tutoring needs.
