A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Tashana, and I’m a 23-year-old full-time college student currently pursuing my Secondary English degree with the goal of becoming a teacher. Because my classes are fully online, I have open and flexible availability throughout the day, allowing me to be fully present and dependable for the families I support. I’ve been around children my entire life, starting with babysitting for family members and friends. I’m also a proud aunt to nine amazing kids, five girls and four boys, who truly mean the world to me. Spending time with them has helped shape my patience, creativity, and genuine love for childcare. Professionally, I have extensive experience working in educational and childcare environments, including daycare settings and schools. I’ve closely worked with infants, preschoolers, first graders, fifth graders, and high school students. This range has made me highly adaptable, attentive to developmental needs, and comfortable supporting children at every stage.

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Marvelous, and I absolutely love working with children! I’ve been fortunate to gain experience with kids of all ages, from little ones just starting school to pre-teens full of curiosity and energy. I’m passionate about creating fun, safe, and supportive environments where kids can thrive, learn, and feel. During my time at Right At School in Chicago, I had the opportunity to lead engaging activities, help with homework, and build meaningful connections with the children I worked with.

I’m known for my warm and approachable personality, and I take pride in being someone children feel comfortable with. At the same time, I’m organized and dependable, always making sure every child feels included and cared for.

For me, working with children isn’t just a job—it’s something I truly enjoy and feel passionate about. I’m excited to bring my energy, creativity, and love for kids to any role where I can make a positive impact!

How to Hire a Weekend Nanny in Chicago, IL

Nanny Lane helps you find a weekend nanny in Chicago, IL who fits your family's schedule. Browse profiles of nannies who are available on Saturdays or Sundays, then message the ones you like.

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 Weekend Nanny?

A weekend nanny cares for your children on Saturdays, Sundays, or both. Some weekend nannies work every weekend, and others are available for the occasional weekend when you have an event, a trip, or a work commitment. Many have another job during the week, so they are often flexible about shorter shifts and one-off dates.

Common Responsibilities of Weekend Nannies in Chicago, IL

Weekend care looks a lot like any other nanny job: supervising play, preparing meals and snacks, getting children to activities, and keeping to nap and bedtime routines. Because weekends are often busier and more active, you may also ask for help with outings, birthday parties, sports games, or family errands.

What to Consider Before You Hire

Be clear about the days and hours you need, whether the schedule is regular or occasional, and how much notice you can give. Rates and pay rules, including how weekend hours are paid, vary by state or province, so agree the details in writing and consider using nanny payroll to keep it simple. If you only need a few weekends a year, say so up front so nannies can plan around it.

Weekend 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:

  • Which weekends are you available, and how much notice do you need?
  • Do you work every weekend or only occasionally?
  • Are you comfortable with outings and activities, and with driving the children if needed?
  • Are you trained in First Aid or CPR?
  • What rate do you charge for weekend shifts?

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.
