Booked by 46 families in Hines, IL

Hi! My name is Rita and I am a dedicated and highly experienced nanny with over 22 years of hands on childcare experience. Caring for children has truly become a lifelong passion of mine. I am a proud mom of two daughters, 20 and 21 so I understand the importance of creating a safe, loving and structured environment where children can grow and thrive. Over the past 13 years, I have worked with families long term, typically staying for 3+ years which has allowed me to build trusting relationships with both children and parents. My background includes everything from infant care to supporting school aged children with routines, activities and emotional development. I also love incorporating learning into everyday activities and have experience teaching Spanish to children in a fun and engaging way. I especially enjoy planning arts and crafts and other child enrichment activities that encourage creativity and development. I’m known for being reliable, patient, and attentive, and I truly enjoy creating engaging, nurturing experiences for the kids I care for. I treat every child like family. I would love the opportunity to support your family! I have references available upon request!

“Rita is very friendly and good with kids. My 3.5 year old loved spending time with her. 10/10 wholeheartedly recommend!”

Booked by 7 families in Hines, IL

For the past 20 years I have been entrusted to nurture newborns, to help preschoolers learn their numbers and letters, to organize fun activities, educational outgoings and to help families balance the many demands in their lives. As a mother of four children myself, I have always been privileged to help young people grow and learn. I continue to find this kind of work to be my labor of love.

“Kareena showed up early and jumped right in. She’s incredibly experienced and gave us tons of tips on things that have worked for her in the past. I can’t wait to have her come back! Our son loved her immediately.”

Hi! I am a college student majoring in Accounting at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. I have been a swim instructor for kids under the age of 12 for a year and I have tutored children how to play piano for 2-3 years. I am very social, patient and fun and have loved my teaching jobs and would like to move onto babysitting kids and taking care of pets as well! I love arts and crafts, games, fun activities, teaching, animals and walks! I am also a fluent Spanish speaker and an intermediate German speaker. My mom has been a full time nanny for 15 years and I have learned a lot on how to be an excellent babysitter!

“Katie was wonderful with our twin 7 year old boys! ”

Hi.My name is Stefany, I am 31 years old, currently residing in the northwest side of Chicago. I’m currently looking for few part time morning/evenings or overnight weekend stays. Whether it’s to step out and run to get errands done, dinner with a friend, a date night with your spouse, you name it. I’m here to help! I have experience with kids as long as I can remember. Babysitting was second nature to us. Migrating from Guatemala , my mother’s specialty was babysitting but primarily teaching . However struggles came in the way , the language barrier being one of them provided me with my first job at 8 years old as a translator . . I not only was “working” but it served me as it helped me practice my second language but most importantly I found much meaning and value in my mothers work...I loved going, I was able to make friends with their kids , build relationships and left inspired . Along the way, I was blessed with having nephews and nieces. Nine now! Growing up as a tight-knit family we’re always around to help each other out. Fast forward to my late teen years into young adulthood I started taking babysitting gigs as side jobs. I enjoy not only watching after kids but being able to not only be a teacher to them but most importantly learn from children themselves . They carry much gifts and help remind us about the meaning of what life really is about I hope to be able to share this with you and your family. Look forward to meeting and working with you!
