Find nannies in Chicago, IL

Hi, my name is Shaina. I began my career working with people with disabilities before transitioning into childcare fourteen years ago. Since then, I have worked as a camp counselor and an after-school teacher with the YMCA, as well as a substitute teacher with the San Francisco Unified School District. I currently specialize in early childhood development, helping infants and toddlers reach important developmental milestones through age-appropriate activities, attentive care, and nurturing support. I create engaging opportunities that encourage language development, fine and gross motor skills, cognitive growth, emotional regulation, and social development. By incorporating purposeful play, reading, music, sensory exploration, and consistent routines into each day, I help children build confidence, independence, and a lifelong love of learning. My approach to childcare goes beyond meeting a child’s daily needs. I strive to raise children with strong emotional intelligence, helping them understand and manage their emotions, confidently verbalize their wants and needs, and develop the skills they need to succeed in school. I believe children thrive when they feel heard, supported, and empowered to express themselves. In addition to nannying, I love babysitting in my spare time because it allows me to continue expanding my childcare experience while connecting with children of all ages. I enjoy planning fun age-appropriate activities, playing games, making crafts, reading stories, and dancing. I absolutely love what I do and take every opportunity to advance my experience while giving attentive loving care to the children I work with. Over the years, I have completed extensive training in teaching, childcare, STEM, HEPA, CPR, CAP, and CPI. I am currently seeking part-time nannying and date-night opportunities. Someday, I hope to open my own daycare; for now, I am continuing to broaden my experience and make a positive difference in the lives of the children and families I work with.

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

Greetings! My name is Daniela, and I am 29 years old. I have over 8 years of experience working as a nanny and sitter for both short-term and long-term families. I view caring for children as a job that requires responsibility, diligence, patience, and, most importantly, genuine care and appreciation for both the children and their families. I truly enjoy creating a safe, nurturing, and positive environment where children can learn, grow, and have fun. As a nanny and sitter, I love engaging children in activities that are both fun and beneficial to their development, including puzzles, reading, creative activities, outdoor play, and helping with homework. I also have a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology, which has given me additional knowledge and understanding of child development, communication, emotional well-being, and creating supportive relationships with children. A few fun facts about me: I am a huge country music fan and a proud Cubs fan! I look forward to getting to know your family and creating a caring and enjoyable experience for your little ones.
