A little bit about me

Hi there! My name is Nicole and I’ve been on and off in the field for about 15 years now. Having worked with multiple families at once, I’d say I’m very flexible when it comes to a schedule but I can also appreciate a consistent schedule. I am a mom to a toddler girl and it’s the best to be able to provide genuine care to not only my own child but to others’ as well. I can provide references upon request!

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Kiah Hoff, and I have worked in childcare for the past 6+ years! I am looking for a summer nannying position (approximately June 1 - August 12).

I have experience working as a nanny for a 1-year-old girl and a 4-year-old boy, as well as serving as a babysitter for a variety of families through the company Chicago Super Sitters. Additionally, I worked as an elementary after-school care and summer camp counselor for three years.

I love working with kids and pouring into them individually. I’m a big fan of crafts, creative play, and outside time. I’d love to watch your kiddos! I have experience watching kids with special needs, I’m CPR certified, and I’m LGBTQ+ friendly!

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Rubi. I’m a very outgoing, responsible, kind, fun person. My passion for working with children started when one of my friends mom offered me a job in her home daycare after I just had graduated high school. I end up loving working with children and being a role model to them. While working at the home daycare I decided to continue my education towards early childhood education. I strongly believe that early childhood is the base of life and we adults must teach children with patience, dedication and love about life. Working with kids for me has been amazing and a fun thing to do!
