Find nannies in Lincolnwood, IL

Hi, my name is Cielo! I’m the eldest of my siblings and have a natural knack for nurturing and caregiving. I’m currently working on getting my MBA, and I recently finished Mechanical Engineering degree at Northern Illinois University which has taught me excellent problem-solving and time-management skills which are great qualities for babysitting! I have hands-on experience caring for children, including a babysitting role during the summer of 2022 and helping raise my two younger sisters from infancy. I’m confident in creating a safe, fun, and educational environment for kids of all ages. Let’s connect! I’d love to meet your family and provide the care and support you’re looking for!

Hi my name is Paige , I am currently a Senior at DePaul. I am offering childcare, pet care, and household services. I have been babysitting kids ages 4 weeks+ for over 4 years. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I have also tutored so wouldn’t mind helping with homework. I like to keep kids entertained and engaged with interactive games, reading, music etc. I also enjoy playing sports and keeping them active! I also don’t mind cleaning/ tidying up, preparing meals, and helping with bedtime routine. Although, I don’t have a car I do have a license and clean driving record, so if provided a car I wouldn’t mind picking up or driving the kids around! I have had dogs growing up my whole life, so I don’t mind watching or caring for dogs at all!

Hi! My name is Rita and I am a dedicated and highly experienced nanny with over 22 years of hands on childcare experience. Caring for children has truly become a lifelong passion of mine. I am a proud mom of two daughters, 20 and 21 so I understand the importance of creating a safe, loving and structured environment where children can grow and thrive. Over the past 13 years, I have worked with families long term, typically staying for 3+ years which has allowed me to build trusting relationships with both children and parents. My background includes everything from infant care to supporting school aged children with routines, activities and emotional development. I also love incorporating learning into everyday activities and have experience teaching Spanish to children in a fun and engaging way. I especially enjoy planning arts and crafts and other child enrichment activities that encourage creativity and development. I’m known for being reliable, patient, and attentive, and I truly enjoy creating engaging, nurturing experiences for the kids I care for. I treat every child like family. I would love the opportunity to support your family! I have references available upon request!

Hi! My name is Jennifer. I’m 35 years old and have been a trusted nanny and sitter for nearly 20 years. Caring for children has always been something I truly enjoy, and I feel very grateful that I’ve been able to work with so many wonderful families over the years. I have worked long-term with three families in Chicago up until the end of last year, each with two boys ranging from infancy to 13 years old. During that time, I supported daily routines including morning and evening care, meal preparation, and school drop-offs. I’ve guided children through developmental milestones, fostered independence, and helped manage sibling dynamics with patience and consistency. These experiences have given me the versatility and skill to adapt to the unique needs of each child and family. I recently transitioned out of working in Chicago and am now spending more time in central Illinois to be closer to family. While I’m here, I’m also beginning to build my own small business in copywriting. My approach to childcare is rooted in patience, respect, and open communication. I believe children thrive in environments where their emotions are acknowledged, their independence is encouraged, and they feel safe expressing themselves. I tend to align with Montessori-inspired ideas and believe discipline should always be thoughtful, respectful, and focused on helping children understand their feelings and actions. Outside of childcare, I love reading, studying health and wellness, spending time outdoors, and enjoying nature whenever I can. I’m also currently learning to play the piano, which has been a fun new challenge. I’m a big animal lover as well and have a tortoiseshell cat of my own, so pets are always a bonus in the home. There is no greater compliment to me than being someone a parent feels they can truly trust with their children. I care deeply about creating a calm, supportive environment where kids feel safe, respected, and cared for.

Hi there! Thank you for considering me to care for your child. I just moved from Denver to Chicago and I am excited to connect with some new families for babysitting opportunities. I work as a mental health therapist but have varied availability to assist with child care needs as they pop up! I have 10 years of experience, which includes working in a nursery, assistant coaching at cheer and dance camps, volunteering with youth in after-school programs, and nannying for kiddos ranging from two months to twelve years old. If you are looking for an occasional sitter you can trust, feel free to reach out. I’d love to speak with you!
