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 Maywood, IL

Hi! My name is Krystyna. I have taken care of infants and toddlers for the past 12 years. I have worked at Bright Horizons in River East downtown Chicago as an infant and toddler teacher. I also worked for two baseball seasons for the Chicago White Sox taking care of the players kids at the home games. I've been a nanny for 9 years. 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. 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.
