Find nannies in Cicero, IL

I moved to Chicago recently and have been searching for the perfect nanny / childcare job. I’ve babysat for many families over the past seven years and worked with kids anywhere from nine months to eleven years, both in professional and personal settings. In an academic sense I’ve worked multiple school or curriculum based jobs throughout my adult life. I moved my way up as a teacher’s assistant to a stand-in head teacher at Pipster Prep Preschool in Portland, OR, where I worked and taught preschool for over two years. I aided in curriculum planning and last-minute creative projects that were both entertaining and enriching. In 2019 I worked as a camp counselor for a summer arts camp. I assisted in and ran the World Arts tent. During my time at Willowbrook I helped design lesson plans, craft ideas, set up, and did my absolute best to tailor an environment to foster and support each and every kid. (ages 8-12) In 2025 I took up a nannying gig on a homestead in Damascus, OR. Here, I not only assisted both WFH parents in caring for their 4 year old and 9 month old, but also helped out around the house. I did whatever I could to ease up their days; washed dishes, cleaned the kitchen, swept, vacuumed, tidied, made dinner. I loved the flexibility and variety of this job, I got a wonderful sense of what it was like to be a part of their family and understand the inner workings of their care system so I could provide the best possible stand-in care for their kids. I would pick the 4 year old up from school, or care for the 9 month old and mealprep while the parents went to pick up the 4 year old. I learned how to work in tandem with a family unit and could make myself useful without instruction. I believe working with children is the most genuine way to release adult ego. We can learn just as much from kids as they can from us. I love seeing the world through the lens of a kid. The phrase “it takes a village” is everything to me. Working with children is a gateway into true human connection and altruism. We’re meant to love and nurture those who are still growing, and it’s an honor to be a part of the symbiosis that aids that growth. I am CPR certified alongside having taken over ten hours of certified child safety and early childhood development courses and workshops. I’ve worked as an assistant preschool teacher, camp counselor, babysitter, and nanny. I’ve cared for kids from 9 months to 11 years, and worked as an art tutor for kids ages 10 to 15.

Hello My name is Alisson, and I’m a warm, patient, and caring preschool teacher with over three years of experience working with children ages 0–12.

Hi, my name is Miya and I am going into my second year at the University of Chicago! I am from Washington, DC and am living in Chicago over the summer. I love theater, reading, hiking, and fun arts and crafts. I am offering child, senior, and pet care. I have been babysitting and petsitting since I was 14 years old. While babysitting, my responsibilities have included cooking, cleaning, and tutoring, as well as leading activities for kids like crafting and dance/music lessons. My favorite experience has been teaching one of my kids ballet! I am also happy to walk and feed pets; I have 2 dogs and 3 turtles of my own so I am very comfortable with animals. I also have experience with senior care. I have grown up with my grandparents in the house and have spent a lot of time looking after them. Additionally, I worked at Grand Oaks Assisted Living Facility for 2 years. At Grand Oaks, I spent a lot of time taking care of residents as well as playing the piano for and forming genuine connections with the residents. I am very flexible this summer and am willing to dedicate many hours to working. I also would love to continue working throughout the school year this year, although my hours would slightly change then.
