Hello, I’m Ene. I truly enjoy working with children and have experience caring for kids of different ages. I can help with homework, creative activities, meal preparation, bedtime routines, and keeping children engaged in a safe and positive environment. In addition to childcare, I also provide household support such as light cleaning, organizing, laundry, and running errands. I’m dependable, patient, and responsible. I am also comfortable assisting with senior care, including companionship, meal prep, transportation to appointments, and help with daily tasks.I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to creating a safe and supportive environment for every family I work with.

Ene was great! We hired her for home cleaning and organizing baby clothes. She helped so much!

Booked by 7 families in Wheeler, 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!

Hello, I have about 25 years of experience taking care of children from birth to 18 years old. Some of the following experiences include, diaper changing, feeding children, sleep routine, food preparation, laundry, car pool, doctor visits, homework/ project assistance, dishes, mopping, sweeping and vacuuming. I also have experience in helping the elderly, feeding, dressing, bathing, medication reminders and assist around with wheelchair/walker. I have more than 15 years of experience with dogs, feeding and cleaning. I received my high school diploma at Richard Daley College in Chicago. My family and I own three dogs, which I successfully potty trained myself! A fun fact, I managed to write and illustrate my own children’s (“Goldfish”) book. Yes, I do have a family of my own, but it has given me so much experience (and still does) that if its ok with you, I would be happy to help in any way that I can.

Karen $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.
