Joan $22 per hour for 1 child

I have an extensive, verifiable background in childcare, having about 15 years in private home care and daycare centers, including children with a range of special needs. I'm trustworthy, reliable, and pretty flexible with parents' & child's needs, scheduling/ adhering to naps (sleep training), enjoy partaking in transitions/ milestones/ overall development, and making sure that children are on track - based on recommnded guidelines! I can do light house-keeping, child's laundry, bath-time, meal/ snack preparation (including introduction to solids/ Baby-Led Weaning, Organic Cooking/ & per parents' instructions), as well as, engage children in fun, language/ educational activities, community walks/ parks, etc., weather permitting! Part of my philosophy is to shadow a child, allowing them freedom in exploration and expression thru nurturing, and creating a safe environment!! I'm bilingual (English/ Spanish), a non-smoker & pet-friendly (additionally, providing pet-sitting services)! I'm up-to-date with my vaccines & recently renewed my CPR/ First Aid/ AED Certification earlier this Summer! I've enjoyed the on-going relationship-building with first-time parents & continous contact for care with past employers! People I usually work with say that I go beyond/ meeting expectations! l also have outstanding references & letters of recommendation at your request. It would be my pleasure to have an opportunity to speak with you/ & meet w/ your family, vía a video call, or, in person. Thank you in advance! JC

Booked by 17 families in Bridgeview, IL

Hi! My name is Krystyna. I have taken care of infants and toddlers for the past 13 years. I have worked at two daycares as an infant and toddler teacher. I also worked for two baseball seasons for the Chicago White Sox and Chicago Cubs. I’ve nannied in New Orleans, Dallas, and New York. I’m a certified Nurse Assistant and CPR certified. I have my own car so transportation isn't a problem. I’m available for part-time, last minute backup care and occasional sitting. Please feel free to contact me with any questions that you have. Hope to hear from you!

“Krystyna was absolutely wonderful with our 9-month-old daughter, Anna! From the moment she arrived, she was professional, kind, and put us at ease. Anna took to her right away, and as we were leaving, we could already hear squeals of joy, always a great sign! It was clear that Krystyna knows how to engage with little ones, and we felt completely comfortable knowing Anna was in great hands. We’ll definitely be asking her to come back and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic babysitter.”

Booked by 37 families in Bridgeview, IL

Hi, I'm Chloe! I'm an experienced nanny and babysitter, and I've been working with kids since I was one myself! I started babysitting when I was 11, and basically haven't stopped since then. I've been a nanny, worked in a day care, been a mother's helper, a tutor, and provided almost every other child care service. I'm new to Chicago, but was working in Denver for the last 12 years. Babies and toddlers are my absolute favorite, but I love kids of all ages. I have experience with kids as young as one week and as old as 16 years, and have worked with siblings and groups of up to 26 kids! I have a gift for dissolving sibling conflict and dealing with tears and tantrums. I am affectionate, reliable, creative, and flexible. I am a student at SAIC looking for work around my class schedule, with a long career behind me already, and can't wait to care for your kids!
