A little bit about me

I bring more than just care and reliability to my work as a nanny — I bring creativity, imagination, and heart. I believe childhood should be filled with wonder, exploration, and artistic expression, so I use my background in art to make every day a little brighter and more inspiring. Whether it’s painting, crafting, storytelling, or inventing fun new games, I love creating activities that spark curiosity and help children express themselves.

Alongside my creativity, I’m patient, responsible, and deeply committed to providing a safe, nurturing environment where kids feel valued and free to be themselves.

I’m the kind of nanny who turns ordinary days into opportunities for learning and laughter — and that’s what makes me stand out.

More About Me

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love storytelling, crafting, music, movement, imaginary play, outdoor activities and any activity that helps children express themselves and build confidence. Whether we’re creating art, making up stories, or simply exploring the world around us, I always aim to make learning fun and meaningful.

The most important part about being a nanny...

To me, the most important part of being a nanny is providing love and nurturing care. Children thrive when they feel safe, supported, and truly loved — and I make it my goal to create that kind of environment every day. It’s not just about routines or activities; it’s about being a steady, caring presence who listens, encourages, and celebrates each child for who they are.

I believe that love and nurturing build the foundation for confidence, creativity, and kindness — and that’s what makes being a nanny such a meaningful and rewarding role.

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite moments as a nanny are the simple, genuine ones — like when the children run up and give me a big hug. Those hugs mean the world to me because they show the trust, love, and connection we’ve built together. It’s such a special feeling to know they feel safe, happy, and cared for when I’m around.

Those little arms wrapping around me remind me that being a nanny isn’t just about caring for children — it’s about becoming a meaningful part of their world.

Babysitter Available in Chicago, IL: Abbeli W.

Hi! My name is Abbeli, and I’m currently a sophomore at DePaul University studying Economics. I’m a responsible, caring, and patient person who genuinely enjoys spending time with children.

I have experience caring for my younger brother throughout middle school, as well as babysitting my cousins. I’ve also helped tutor them, taught them how to write, and spent time playing games and coming up with fun activities. I love creating a fun, comfortable environment where kids feel happy and cared for.

I’ve always gotten along well with children, and babies especially seem to love me! They often end up falling asleep on my lap, which I think is the sweetest thing. I’m patient, attentive, and enjoy building connections with the children I care for.

I’m currently looking for babysitting opportunities and would love to connect with families who need an extra helping hand. Feel free to message me with any questions!
