Find nannies in Kenilworth, IL

I'd describe my personality as Patient , kind, dependable and attentive I've spent most of my life helping care for children, which naturally taught me patience, responsibility, organization, and how to create a fun and nurturing environment for kids. I love engaging children in creative activities, pretend play, outdoor time, and helping them learn through fun experiences. I've been babysitting since my freshman year of college, so I'm very comfortable managing routines, preparing meals and snacks, keeping play areas and kitchens tidy, and helping maintain an organized space. I'm also comfortable around pets, and I genuinely enjoy helping families keep things running smoothly however I can. I take initiative, pay attention to detail, and always aim to create a safe, positive, and caring environment for children. I'd love the opportunity to support your family and become someone your daughter or son feels comfortable, happy, and excited to spend time with. Your child's safety and comfort are my top priorities.I show up on time, keep your kids safe, and make sure they feel cared for and respected while you're away. I have childcare experience in both caregiving and nurturing roles and i am passionate about creating caring, engaging, and supportive environments for children. I’m dependable, attentive, organized, and deeply value building trust with both children and families.

Hi! I'm a dependable, patient, and caring mom of three girls with years of experience caring for children of all ages. I started babysitting, house sitting, and pet sitting as a preteen, and growing up in a large family taught me how to stay organized, multitask, and adapt to just about anything. I'm happy to help with school pick-ups and drop-offs, prepare simple meals, assist with light household tasks, and keep your child's daily routine running smoothly. Whether we're playing outside, reading books, or winding down for bedtime, my goal is to create a safe, fun, and comfortable environment where kids feel cared for and parents feel confident they're in good hands. I know every family is different, so I do my best to be reliable, communicative, and flexible while treating your home and children with the same care and respect I would expect for my own.

I love children and am a child at heart myself. An artist, I paint, sing in a band, write, and have acted in independent films. I have primarily supported myself as a freelance graphic designer, and have been self-employed for many years, so I have vast experiences being able to handle multiple responsibilities, urgent needs from my clients (in this case, little munchkins), and be cool under pressure. I'm also a mom myself, though my own little munchkins are grown and on their own now (and taller than me!). I am very gentle, organized, and fun and have an empathetic nature. And because I otherwise work freelance, my schedule is flexible. I would so love to help care for kids near me, and would happily lead them in projects, too, or come up with creative ideas on how we could pass the time (aka--not on screens). I have led classes in drawing and painting for both kids and adults for years as well, and would have fun teaching or leading instruction in art-making or crafts (I'm also a crafter--crochet, sewing, weaving, air-dry clay, etc.) I have a cat and have also had dogs, so I'm very comfortable with pet care. Basically, if you have little people in your home--or furry friends, too--I'm here to help!

Hello families, My name is Hannah and I have been in the childcare industry for the the past 18 years. My experience began with working as an inclusion aid and camp counselor with the Chicago Park district for over 10 years. I am currently a full-time preschool teacher for the Archdiocese of Chicago and on my free time I enjoy assisting with children's parties , helping busy families manage their households and pairing families and nannies together. Although childcare is my specialty, I enjoy being a companion for seniors. I enjoy helping around the house, running errands and just being a companion.
