Find an after school nanny in River Forest, IL

I pride myself on being a dedicated caregiver who treats every family like my own. I specialize in early childhood care (0-5 years), where I take the initiative to handle meal prep and cleaning to ensure the home runs smoothly. My life experience is extensive; for over 15 years, I have been a primary caregiver for my brother with Down syndrome, which has taught me patience and advocacy. My background also includes caring for elderly family members, where I learned that respect is the highest priority. I am hardworking, reliable, and ready to support your family's needs.

I grew up in a big family and always found myself taking care of the younger kids. I am an elementary education major so in high-school I took a preschool class that allowed me to get experience with 3-5 year olds. Then I joined my churches nursery so I got a little over a year of experience with infants and 2-3 with toddlers. I babysit my 3 month old niece often. I work at a daycare where I float around a lot. That has allowed me to have 8 months of experience with all ages up to 4-5. The child’s wellbeing has always been my priority but also making sure they’re having fun. Working at a daycare has also taught me to communicate better with kids and parents. Knowing what helps them when they can’t really speak for themselves or can’t form full sentences. After the daycare I became a director at a summer camp/after school program which gave me experience with ages 5-12.

I am a responsible, affectionate and patient person, with a vocation for the care of children and older adults. I stand out for my attention, respect and commitment to the well-being of the people in my charge. I have skills to provide company, support in daily activities, preparation of basic foods and maintain a clean and safe environment. I like to create a quiet environment, of trust and affection, adapting to the needs of each person. I am punctual, organized and I know how to follow instructions carefully. I always seek to offer humane treatment, with empathy and dedication.
