A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Jacqueline. I’m 24 years old, and I’m all about creating fun, safe, and loving spaces where kids can truly be themselves. I’m reliable, punctual, and super patient, but I also love being creative and coming up with new ways to keep kids entertained and learning.

My childcare journey began early—taking care of my younger siblings in high school sparked my passion for working with kids. From there, I jumped into nannying in 2020.

Whether it’s coming up with arts and crafts projects, playing outdoors, or just lending an ear when they need it, I’m dedicated to making every day feel special. I believe that every child deserves to feel supported, valued, and safe—and I bring that energy to everything I do.

I’m looking for a family that values open communication, fun adventures, and a positive environment. I can’t wait to meet you and see how I can help make your day a little brighter!

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Ella! I have grown up and lived in the Midwest in the United States my whole life. I live in a city in Indiana, about 3.5 hours away from Chicago.

Kids are the future! I have adored taking care of children since I was one myself. I have grown up with a very strong family dynamic. I have one older brother, who is quite literally my best friend. Our parents raised us to always rely on each other and we have. Other than that, I have grown up living 5 minutes away from my 6 younger cousins my whole life. From taking them to practices, school, and being their nanny for months at a time, they have all become younger siblings in my mind. I love them dearly, and to watch them grow is a blessing. I am CPR certified, and have gained a basic knowledge of working with autistic children.
