A little bit about me
Hi! I’m dependable, and experienced nanny with over 10 years of childcare experience. I truly love working with children and feel incredibly grateful to be someone families can trust with their little ones. I have experience caring for children from newborns through school age, including managing multiple children, creating routines, preparing meals, helping with household tasks, coordinating activities, and keeping busy family schedules running smoothly. I’m CPR certified, comfortable traveling with families, and I’m always happy to pitch in wherever I’m needed. My goal as a nanny is to create a safe, loving, and fun environment where children feel comfortable being themselves while encouraging their independence, creativity, and development. I believe in being patient, communicative, and consistent, and I value building a genuine relationship with both the children and their parents. I’m looking for a long-term, where I can become a trusted and dependable part of their household.

"Alisha was employed as a Young Toddler Teacher at Dearhaven Childcare and Learning Center in Lake Forest, IL. I was Alisha's supervisor and the director of the center. Alisha always arrived to work on time and came to work with a smile on her face. Alisha built strong partnerships with the parents and worked effectively with all team members. Alisha was often observed smiling and laughing alongside the children and cared deeply about each child in her care. Alisha was an effective multitasker and handled the many responsibilities of the role with success."

"Nadia was exactly the type of nanny you could want as a parent. Naturally a nurturing person ! She’s super patient. Has just natural ability with kids, she would do more than we expected her to, she started to become a family assistant because of her work ethic and wanting to help more. My kids love her and we stay in contact still! She’s great. 10/10"

Hello, My name is Dominique, and I am a director certified early childhood professional! I have just recently launched my own Travel Nanny services and am looking to support families from all over the country and even internationally. I began my career as an infant teacher when I was 21 years old, but began working with children professionally at the age of 15 teaching three year olds how to swim! Since beginning my journey, I have worked with various age groups ranging from infant to pre-k. I worked in educational leadership for Bright Horizons, and built a childcare center for a church in six months! I’m very proud of my journey! Here I am now, on my next adventure! Building my travel business to support families while they are on the move!

How to Hire a Traveling Nanny in Illinois
Nanny Lane helps you find a traveling nanny in Illinois who can join your family on trips.
We offer nanny services including background checks, Agency, and nanny payroll. Start by posting a profile with a job description, and soon you can start connecting with nannies who fit your family.
What Is a Traveling Nanny?
A traveling nanny, also called a travel nanny, goes on trips with your family to care for the children, whether it is a vacation, a business trip, or an extended stay. Some families need a nanny who travels regularly, and others only for the occasional trip.
Common Responsibilities of Traveling Nannies in Illinois
On the road, a traveling nanny keeps the children's routines going, supervises play and meals, and helps with logistics such as airports, car rides, and hotel rooms. They may care for the children while parents work or attend events, and often work longer or less predictable days than at home.
What to Consider Before You Hire
Discuss how often you travel and for how long, who pays for the nanny's flights, accommodation, and meals, how hours and days off work on a trip, and whether the nanny needs a passport. Put the terms in a written agreement so there are no surprises. Nannies with a valid passport and a flexible schedule are the best fit for frequent travel.
Traveling Nanny Interview Questions
Once you find a promising candidate, invite them for an interview to see if they would be a great fit for your family. Here are some questions you can ask:
- Are you comfortable traveling, including internationally, and do you have a valid passport?
- How much notice do you need for a trip?
- Have you cared for children while traveling before?
- How would you keep routines going in a hotel or an unfamiliar place?
- How do you handle hours, days off, and expenses on the road?
At this stage, request their references and ask their references some questions. After preparing the job offer or contract, we recommend that you run a background check before the start date.
