Find nannies in Forest Park, IL

Hello! My name is Tatum and I graduated from Loyola University Chicago in May of 2024. I just finished an internship here in Chicago and plan on moving out of Chicago at the end of May so have a couple of months left to explore and try new things! I spent two summers (2020 and 2021) between college working as a full-time nanny for two kids back home (ages 5 to 6 and 8 to 9), helping them make lunch, taking them to activities/sports, and playing games with them. I also would help them with their summer workbooks including reading comprehension, writing, and math (even when it was the last thing they wanted to do). I am someone who enjoys being active, on their feet, and finding creative ways to spend my time, whether that be arts and crafts, reading, trying a new recipe, or just calling someone to chat when I get bored!

Hi! My name is Breanna, and I’m based in Uptown, Chicago. As the oldest of several siblings, caregiving has always come naturally to me. I’ve been working in childcare since I was 14, starting in daycare environments and expanding to private homes. With over a decade of hands-on experience, I’ve supported children through everything from temper tantrums to milestone moments, and I specialize in working with kids between 6 months and 14 years old. I’m reliable, patient, and deeply committed to creating safe, engaging spaces for children to grow. I’m also happy to assist with light housework and chores to make your day easier. In addition to childcare, I offer pet care and senior companionship. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions—I’d love to learn more about your family’s needs!

Hi! I’m Eric — a medical student with years of hands-on childcare experience in both family and hospital settings. I’ve cared for kids of all ages, from newborns to teens, and have been an uncle since 14. I spent five years at the University of Chicago Medical Center cuddling and comforting babies in the NICU and engaging children in the playroom, then volunteered at Lurie Children’s Hospital supporting pediatric cardiac patients. Now, I help coordinate Rush University’s Buddies & Cuddlers program, training and scheduling volunteers who comfort infants and children. I also mentor high school students through my nonprofit, Sneakers to Scrubs, helping them explore medical careers. I love helping kids feel safe, calm, and happy — whether feeding an infant, reading stories, or organizing activities. I’m CPR and First Aid trained, fully vaccinated, and bring a dependable, caring presence to every family I work with.

I’m a caring, responsible, and patient childcare professional with 8 years of experience working with children. I have 6 years of experience caring for toddlers and 2 years of experience working with infants, which has helped me develop a strong understanding of children’s needs, routines, and development. Although I’m new to working as a private nanny, I’m excited to bring my childcare experience into a more personal setting where I can build a strong connection with the children and family I work with. I enjoy creating a safe, loving, and fun environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to learn and grow. I’m dependable, organized, and willing to be flexible with a family’s routine. I’m also comfortable around pets and happy to help with reasonable household tasks such as tidying up after the children, doing their laundry, preparing simple meals, and keeping their areas organized. I’m looking forward to finding a family where I can be a trustworthy and supportive part of their everyday lives.
