Booked by 46 families in Western Springs, 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!”

Hi, my name is Janneth! Originally from Mexico, I’m bilingual in English and Spanish, and I’ve been caring for children since I was 15 years old. Babysitting has always been more than just a job for me, it’s a beautiful way to connect with kids and be welcomed into their world through kindness, patience, and respect. I remember how challenging it was for my parents to find someone they could truly trust to care for me and my siblings. That’s why I take this role seriously and always show up with the same love and respect that my parents wished for us. I love spending time outdoors, doing puzzles, coloring, and listening to music. I’m also great with dogs, I’m happy to help with Spanish homework or practice! Your child’s safety, joy, and well-being are my top priorities, and I look forward to being someone you can count on.

Booked by 7 families in Western Springs, 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! ”
