Booked by 7 families in Valparaiso, IN

Hi I’m Jordan! I double majored at Purdue in psychology and law & society and graduated in 2024. I moved to Chicago for law school and I just finished up my first year. I have been providing childcare since I was about 16 years old and I’m first aid & cpr certified. I worked at a local daycare in my hometown for a summer. I was also a nanny my senior year and continued to nanny for that family until I left for college. While at Purdue, I worked at a daycare. I was a floater, so I worked in the infant room, multiage room, 2s room, and pre-k so I am comfortable with all ages! I am also comfortable with pets!

Jordan is wonderful! She is kind, professional and timely. She was great with our 1.5 year old, and we highly recommend her!

Karen Chicago
$22 per hour for 1 child

Hi – My name is Karen, and I’m currently on a gap year from the University of Michigan. I’m using this time to work and save up before returning to finish my degree. I love working with kids and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’ve helped my aunt with her nanny job and also worked at a home daycare, caring for children of different ages. I’ve also cared for my nieces, so I’m used to keeping things fun, patient, and organized. I can cook, help with light cleaning, and assist with household tasks. I don’t drive, but I’m reliable, always on time, and prefer families nearby or accessible by public transit. I’m also comfortable working with dogs and enjoy creating a warm, positive environment for families.

I am a nanny with 15 years experience in childcare. I value open communication between myself as the caregiver and parents to best meet and support children's changing needs. I have most recently worked with infants and toddlers and I am knowledgeable of developmental milestones and engaging play. I have also worked with preschool and school age children as a babysitter, swim instructor and dance instructor. I am a patient, mindful and creative person who loves to be active and outdoors with children of all ages and foster a safe, loving and engaging environment. I am CPR/First Aid certified and have references available. *** haven’t been able to change my availability but available for date nights :) **** Friday & Saturday nights :) *** also available during the day for the next month!! M (anytime) T (afternoon/evening) W (anytime) F (afternoon/evening)

Maura was amazing today with our 10 month old baby! He is going through stranger anxiety, separation anxiety, teething, AND wasn't feeling the best today, and despite all of that, he really enjoyed spending time with Maura and felt comfortable almost immediately. That almost never happens! Maura was so sweet with him, kept him engaged and happy, and even loaded/unloaded our dishwasher & straightened up during his nap and before leaving for the day. He had a really fun day! We are very excited to have Maura back as our regular part-time nanny and sitter!
