Hi everyone! I’m Jenny! I’m a Chicago-based professional who genuinely loves spending time with kids and creating a fun, safe, and caring environment for them. My love for childcare started when I was 15, when I began volunteering at a local daycare. Since then, I’ve continued to babysit occasionally for families in my community, and I especially love coming up with fun activities like arts and crafts, trips to the park, reading, and creative play. I’m also a very proud aunt to my niece and nephews, who have given me plenty of experience keeping up with little ones! I’m bilingual in English and Spanish and have a deep appreciation for different cultures and backgrounds. I recently graduated from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and now work professionally in the legal field, so I’m responsible, organized, and dependable. I’m available on weekends and most weekday evenings after 6:00 PM. I’d love to connect with families in the area and learn more about how I can help! I’m also happy to provide references upon request.

Hi! My name is Julia and I’m a college grad from DePaul. I have my bachelors in psychology with a concentration in human development, and currently work full time as a nanny to a 2 year old girl and two elementary aged boys. I love working with all ages of kids, and am hoping to find parents looking for a regular date night sitter on the weekends when I am not nannying. I have my own car for transportation, and am comfortable working with pets. Aside from my current nannying job, I have been working with children for the last 8 years throughout high school and college. I am CPR certified and feel comfortable caring for children over 6 months of age. I enjoy getting creative and having fun with the kids I sit for, and am also very comfortable at handling bed times and getting kiddos to sleep. I’m happy to set up a phone call or zoom meeting to chat further if you are interested :)
