Booked by 10 families in Brookfield, IL

Hi families! My name is Jeannette, and I’m a loving, caring, and compassionate nanny with over 15 years of hands-on childcare experience. I’ve dedicated my life to nurturing and supporting children of all ages—from newborns and toddlers to school-aged kids and preteens. I bring warmth, patience, and a positive attitude to every family I work with. My childcare journey began in high school as a part-time nanny, and since then, I’ve worked in Early Head Start programs, cared for children with special needs, and supported families with everything from daily routines to overnight care. I am CPR and first aid certified, bilingual in English and Spanish, and currently work full-time as a Special Education Classroom Assistant in a public school. During summers, weekends, and evenings, I continue to nanny for wonderful families who need an extra set of loving hands. I’m energetic, creative, and love engaging kids in developmentally appropriate play, outdoor adventures, arts and crafts, and learning activities. I take pride in building trusting relationships with children and their parents and always strive to create a safe, joyful, and supportive environment. Whether you need part-time care, backup help, summer coverage, or a reliable sitter for date nights, I’m here to help. I understand how important it is to find someone you can count on—and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. Thank you for considering me to care for your little ones. I look forward to meeting you and becoming a trusted part of your child’s life! Warmly, Jeannette

“Jeannette was absolutely amazing! She was extremely professional, thorough, and did an incredible job cleaning my house. Everything looked spotless and refreshed when she was done! She’s also so friendly, kind, and wonderful to work with. I’m so glad I had the chance to meet her and experience her services. I highly recommend Jeannette to anyone looking for a reliable and fantastic cleaner!”

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
