Find nannies in Hometown, IL

Hi! My name is Ameyaly and I’m offering childcare and babysitting services. I have been working with children for 3 years, and during that time I’ve gained experience caring for kids of different ages. I truly enjoy spending time with children and creating a safe, supportive, and fun environment where they can feel comfortable. I’m patient, reliable, and caring. I enjoy planning simple activities like crafts, reading, music, and playtime that keep kids engaged while also helping them learn and grow. I believe every child deserves kindness, attention, and encouragement.

Hi! My name is Santana McClendon, and I’m a 20-year-old senior in college pursuing my degree in Early Childhood Education. I have extensive experience working with children of all ages. I began in my early teens working at a daycare every summer, where I cared for children ranging from 5 months to 12 years old. During my time there, I helped teach, engage, supervise, and create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for every child. After turning 18 and getting my first car, I worked for a transportation company, safely transporting children to and from school, summer camp, and home. This role strengthened my reliability, responsibility, and ability to build positive relationships with both children and families. This past school year, I worked as a Special Education Classroom Assistant (SECA) with Chicago Public Schools, where I supported preschool students ages 4–5 with diverse learning needs while collaborating closely with teachers to create a positive and inclusive classroom environment. In addition to my work with CPS, I have consistently nannied for multiple families. One family had a 13-year-old son and a 7-year-old daughter, while another family has a 9-year-old son. These experiences have strengthened my ability to adapt to each family’s routines while providing dependable, engaging, and compassionate care. I am also CPR certified, giving families added peace of mind that I am prepared to respond in the event of an emergency. One thing I love most about nannying is being able to balance being a fun, energetic caregiver with supporting each child’s learning and development. Whether we’re spending the afternoon at the park, having a dance battle in the living room, doing arts and crafts, reading books, or working on age-appropriate learning activities, I strive to make every day both enjoyable and meaningful. My education in Early Childhood Education and my hands-on experience have given me the knowledge to support children’s social, emotional, academic, and developmental growth while making sure they have fun along the way. Working with children has always been my passion, and I truly enjoy helping them learn, grow, and feel supported. Families describe me as reliable, patient, caring, fun, flexible, and trustworthy. I prioritize creating a safe, engaging, and loving environment where children can thrive. As the new school year approaches, I’m looking for a full-time nannying position, though I am open for part-time! Please reach out!!

Hello, My name is Rayona, and I’m 23 years old. Although I’ve been in education for five years, I currently work as a teacher assistant for Pre-Kindergarten. Before that, I spent two years working at a daycare, where I cared for infants and toddlers. For the past three years, I’ve been working with children in the Child Protective Services (CPS) system, first with second graders and then with Pre-Kindergarten students. I genuinely enjoy working with children and engaging in fun activities, whether it’s outdoors at the park, taking a walk, or indoors, assembling puzzles or coloring pictures.

I recently graduated from the University of Michigan with a Bachelor of Science in Ecology, Evolution, and Biodiversity with a minor in Art & Design. I just moved to the Hyde Park area! I have experience caring for kids between 0-13 years old through babysitting as well as theater and sailing camps. I love to do crafts, go outside, and any fun activities we can think of that don’t require much screen time :) If your child is interested in the natural sciences or the arts, I am definitely your gal. I can also help tutor your child in all grade school subjects. I have been CPR, First Aid, and Lifeguard certified. I also have a pet rabbit. She is very friendly and would love to meet your child if they are interested! I also have experience caring for pets including cats, dogs, and rabbits.

Hi, I'm Irene! I’m looking to babysit for more experience in the childcare field! I have worked mostly with children with special needs and was training to be an ABA therapist. Love to work with all children! I love all animals and I’m very well acquainted with most pet care (exotic as well). I’ve been babysitting unofficially for about 9 years so I wanted to give it a more professional try!
