"Peggy has been an integral part of my life for many years, first as my nanny and then as a member of my family. I am 40 years old, and we still keep in regular contact because she is family. Her dedication, kindness, and unwavering commitment to my well-being left an indelible mark on my life. Peggy's ability to create a nurturing and structured environment made our home feel like a safe space. She was always patient, attentive, and responsive, ensuring that I felt supported and cared for every day.
Peggy has a natural gift for connecting with children, and she consistently demonstrated compassion, warmth, and an incredible work ethic. She was always proactive, helping with household tasks, organizing activities, and encouraging learning and development. Her genuine interest in fostering a positive and engaging environment helped shape me into the person I am today.
My wife and I have a three-year-old son and if we lived in Chicago today, we wouldn’t hesitate to hire Peggy immediately."

A little bit about me
I'm a Mom of 4, ages 13, 10, 7, and 5... I've been married for 14 years. I'm an Eldest sibling of 13. I've worked as a Para-Transit Driver ( just recently resigned) and I loved my job... I've been carrying for children for a long time. My parents told me I've always wanted to help with my siblings. Always caring towards them. I've also, had the honor of caring for my high school teacher's children before. And we still keep in touch. We're family now. I am a "child at heart" as they say. I enjoy video games, and music, reading when it's something I'm interested in. My dream as a teen was to own a Daycare and believe it or not. My heart is set on being a Nanny.
I am working on getting my First aid/ cpr training to be more prepared. Especially, with young ones exploring things by putting them in their mouths.
I love children, I feel they are the closes to God because they're so innocent and prefect. Your child(ren) are safe with me.

A little bit about me
Hello :) I am an NYU graduate and am currently in Graduate school at Rush University working towards a Masters in Pediatrics Nursing. I decided to start babysitting because I saw an opportunity to do something I know how to do, that works with my schedule and allows me to stay active as well as attentive. I have a younger sister with whom I am very close with. One of the main reasons I believe I am such a good care giver is because I have a lot of patience and energy. I currently volunteer at Club21, an organization that works with children/young adults that have Down Syndrome/Autism. I have also tutored children from ages 6-15, in any and all subjects and would be comfortable helping with schoolwork :) I am fully vaccinated and will take extra precautions to ensure that any child I am with will stay safe from any possible COVID-19 germs! I look forward to having the opportunity to be a positive influence and trustworthy person for your family!

Hello!
My name is Emily, I am a 20 year old college student studying occupational therapy for children. I am very much interested In being your after school sitter as I feel like this could be potentially a great match for both! Before the pandemic I was a summer recreational leader for the CPD at a local park where I would oversee the care, safety, and the activities to keep 20 kids active all day. Besides this I have volunteered at a local daycare center and I’m actively taking on occasional babysitting positions for children around 3-10 years old so I have plenty of experience not only caring for but also tutoring if that is of interest at any point in time. I absolutely love taking care of children and I do love working with various age groups as I am working to be the best in my career as a pediatric OT. I’d love to get to know you more as well so if you have any questions or any concerns please feel free to reach out and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Laura supinger! I'm an incoming high school senior with an interest in pursuing youth and children's ministry. I have lots of experience working with children through babysitting, working part time doing after school care for elementary school children, volunteering at church with kids on mission trips and volunteering to help run vacation bible school, and I completed a three month long internship last year as a student teacher in a second grade classroom. I have a very mild form of autism and lots of experience working with special needs and neurodivergent children. My parents are a youth and children's pastor and a pediatrician, so as you can imagine i've been learning and observing the ins and outs of childcare from a young age. I love cats, theatre, baking, writing, music, and anything creative! Can't wait to meet you!

A little bit about me
the University of Chicago looking for part time nanny/sitter work. I’ve worked as a babysitter, summer camp counselor, tutor, and teacher’s aide. Some of my most rewarding experiences have been with families I’ve stayed with for years — if you’re looking for a long-term sitter or nanny, I might be the perfect match! I’m happy to provide references, including from a family I worked with for three years as a nanny/tutor. Outside of school, I enjoy trying new restaurants with friends, cooking (I was almost on Chopped Junior!!), playing board games, and going on little day-trip-adventures. I can comfortably look after 1-3 children! I am fully licensed, and I drive a 2026 Range Rover Velar which can comfortably fit 3 kids in the back seat. My car is rated as one of the safest luxury SUVs on the market, and I have a perfect driving history. I also do not drink or smoke.

Greetings! My name is Nari, a certified babysitter at the age of 17 (With certificate that I’ve completed training). Some things about me are:
I have been caring for children and babysitting since I was approximately 11-12 years old, which has provided me with ample experience with ANY age child. I am currently not attending a physical school at the moment due to personal circumstances, I am actively engaged in online studies to ensure my graduation! In my free time, I enjoy engaging in various activities such as crafts (doesn’t matter which crafts i love all!) creating TikToks lol, dancing (which i have danced since i was younger), random dressing up, and watching movies that I’ve never seen before. Additionally, I am capable of handling basic household tasks, preparing children for bedtime, and assisting with homework if needed.

How to Hire an After-School Nanny in Chicago, IL
Nanny Lane helps you find an after-school nanny in Chicago, IL who can look after your children once the school day ends.
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 an After-School Nanny?
An after-school nanny cares for school-age children on weekday afternoons, usually from school pickup until a parent gets home. It is a part-time role with a regular schedule, which suits nannies who want a consistent shorter day.
Common Responsibilities of After-School Nannies in Chicago, IL
After-school nannies pick up children from school or the bus stop, give them a snack, and help with homework. They also take children to activities and lessons, supervise play, and may prepare dinner or tidy up after the children before a parent arrives.
What to Consider Before You Hire
Share your school's dismissal time, the days you need care, and how you will handle early dismissals, holidays, and school breaks. Confirm whether you need the nanny to drive, and whether they would be comfortable transporting several children. A regular schedule makes it easier to find a good fit.
After-School 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 available at our school's dismissal time every weekday?
- Do you have a car, and are you comfortable driving children to activities?
- How would you handle homework and screen time?
- What would you do if a child was sick or hurt?
- Do you have experience with school-age children?
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.
