I am a caring, responsible, and patient caregiver with both professional experience and real-life parenting experience. I am the mother of a 3-year-old child, so I understand firsthand the love, attention, and responsibility that caring for a baby or young child requires. I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from my home country, and I currently work providing behavioral therapy to children with autism, which has strengthened my skills in emotional regulation, structure, patience, and child development. I truly enjoy working with children and focus on creating a safe, calm, and structured environment where they feel loved, understood, and supported. I am very attentive to routines, safety, and each child’s individual needs. I can help with: Daily childcare routines Meal preparation Light household tasks related to the child Educational and developmental activities I value clear and honest communication with parents and treat every child as if they were my own. My primary language is Spanish, and I can understand and communicate in English. I am reliable, nurturing, and flexible with my schedule. I would be happy to care for your child with dedication, respect, and warmth.

Hello Dear Parents. I am a mature single female with 2 adult children of my own. I am also "mom" to 4 fur babies (2 dogs & 2 cats) I am an English mother tongue speaker and fluent French speaker. I currently live in Bartlett IL & am ready and available to provide excellent weekend day and evening care for your children Sat's & Sun's. I can help with your pets as well if needed. I am currently a full time nanny for 2 families weekdays M-F. I am interested and available to care for your kiddos if you need an extra hand juggling the demands of parenting from 7pm onward on weekdays, drop offs and pick ups from extra curricular activities any day and time weekend days and also home care during night time hours on weekends so mom and dad can stay connected and share adult time alone. Once you and I have established a mutually trusting and comfortable relationship, I am open to overnight care options if you would like to have a getaway weekend as long as the timing of such would not conflict with with my commitments to my weekday families. I am an obsessional tidier so always picking up and putting away things. If needed, I can prepare age appropriate light meals with the ingredients you provide. I am not a cleaning lady although I am a clean lady. If mutually agreed upon in advance I may be able to assist with light housework and light laundry while babysitting, although child care would be my principal focus. My hourly base rate is $22 to 30 hour depending on how many children require care and the distance from my home. Extra duties will be an additional pre-agreed charge based on requirements. I am a non smoker, first aid and CPR certified. I own a recent, reliable vehicle. I welcome caring for children from diverse nationalities, faiths, and relationships. I am an active person that loves the outdoors and will take your children outdoors weather permitting. I believe in activities that foster creative minds and curiosity as apposed to screen time or electronic devices. I myself love reading and would love to read to your children from their favorite books and their play board games with them. I will be on the floor playing with and caring for your children, not sitting on your couch surfing the net or texting on my cell phone. I am firm but fun I cant wait to hear from you and meet your little ones or bigger ones. Lets talk soon and get to know each other. I have references to provide to directly verify Thank you and kind regards. Shelly

Hi my name Susan. I am offering child care services. I have experience working with newborns to 10 year olds. My first job (when I was 15) was taking care of 2 kids in my home. I enjoyed it so much I was sure I would have a career in child care. My senior year of high school I Nannied for 3 kids, all under the age of 10. A couple of years after I stopped nanny the kids, my nephew was born and I became his secondary care giver . All of my friends have children as well and I’ve gained experience through them as well. I currently work with a family of two boys ages 4 and 7. I have been working for them for 2.5 years. I currently create schedules, laundry, cleaning, and creative activities. My strengths are remaining calm and patient in high pressure and creative problem solving. I pride myself in becoming an addition to the family and helping them stay organized and on schedule. I am a strong believer in learning at a young age. I would offer learning a second language, learning numbers, colors, and shapes, as long as having intellectual conversations and developmental experiences to help your child be the smartest cookie! I am bilingual and know a little bit of sign language since my niece uses it as a form of communication. I am willing to teach kids Spanish. The current family and I took a CPR course at home but do not have a certificate to show for it.
