Margarita $20 per hour for 1 child

I am a very extraverted, fun, loving, caring, welcoming, outgoing, and faith filled mother of 5 children. I have 29 years of experience in taking care of kids. I currently am taking care of a 5 year old boy and have been taking care of him since he was 2. I spend time playing with him, singing with him, making crafts with him, and make sure the time he spends with me is a fun one! I personally potty trained him, and my current responsibilities are to feed, clothe, and bathe him. I have taken him with me to do outdoor activities and can keep a very watchful eye on kids. Before taking care of him I watched two other young boys from a married couple. I kept them very preoccupied with various activities. I was responsible for feeding them breakfast and lunch, as well as making sure to clothe them and making sure they went to the bathroom. Before I left the house I kept it very clean. I have a wide variety of cooking skills which makes it easier on parents to have their kids eat what they would like them to eat. If you're looking for someone to clean your home I am a very thorough cleaner. I am open to watching any small pets since I use to own a Cocker Spaniel Poodle and a cat. I am open to watching anyone that is elderly and perform basic tasks. I am willing to open up my home for watching anyone as well as travel to your home. Whatever is most convenient. If your looking for a mother's touch, that is definitely me.

Natalie $19 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m a student at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign with experience in both childcare and pet care. I’ve been tutoring and babysitting since my freshman year of high school and have worked with youth programs, where I learned to create a safe, structured, and engaging environment for kids. I also have experience caring for pets and enjoy providing reliable care including walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship while maintaining their routines. I’m responsible, patient, and easy to communicate with, and I take pride in being dependable and attentive. With a background in lifeguarding, also serving in the national guard, I’m very safety-focused and calm in any situation. My goal is to give families peace of mind knowing their children and pets are well cared for.

Nicole $23 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Nicole, but you can call me Cole. I recently moved back to the area after six years in Dallas, TX. On top of previous nanny experience, I am a first time mom to a 13 month old baby boy. I am CPR certified and well versed in infant first aid. My nannying experience includes, but is not limited to, children ranging from ages 2 through 15, caring for multiple animals (including reptiles), light to moderate housework and organizing, assisting in personal event planning, perfecting homemade cupcakes, and more. I am very passionate about the outdoors, creating learning experiences, and helping cultivate the village it takes to help families thrive. Professionally, after my last nannying position, I worked in the live music production space as an operations coordinator and received my 200HR Pilates instructor certification with an emphasis on classical reformer Pilates. After becoming a mother myself, I made the decision to revisit family and home management as it was plain to see where my compassion resided the most. Ideally, I will work with families who are open to my son (up to date on age appropriate vax) accompanying me on days my husband travels for work. I have an insured, clean, and safe SUV, a clean driving record, and an infant car seat available to use if needed or desired. I am open to family and home care for all ages. Due to allergies, I am limited to households with maximum one cat. Looking forward to meeting you and your family!

Jonathan $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Jonathan, I am 22 years old, and I am a pediatric registered nurse. I have experience caring for children from newborns through 18 years old in both surgical transplant and general medicine settings. I love working with kids and also have personal experience babysitting my two nephews, from the time they were babies through their school-aged years. My responsibilities have included playing fun games, helping with homework, preparing meals, and keeping them safe and happy. Although I work full time with children as a nurse, I have four days off each week and would love to spend some of that time babysitting. I’m reliable, caring, and bring the same compassion I use in nursing to the families I work with.
