A little bit about me

Hi, I am Francesca (Frankie)! I am 18 years old, nursing student at DePaul University.

A little bit about me

Hi there! I'm a 22-year-old senior in college. I am majoring in political science with an emphasis in legal studies and I am so excited to graduate this spring. Some of my interests include crafting, calligraphy, baking, fashion, and of course, childcare.
I have been a babysitter/nanny for 11 years now, and have worked with over 20 different families. I have experience with kids of all ages, from newborns to pre-teens. I'm not afraid of stinky diapers, baths, or bedtimes. Believe me, I've seen it all! In addition to my experience, I am also a Red Cross Certified Babysitter and am CPR Certified. Most importantly, I love little kiddos and sincerely enjoy getting to meet and connect with new families.
While I am currently attending school in Northern California, I will be moving to the Chicagoland area in mid-August. I am so excited to come back to my roots in the Midwest and I can't wait to find a new family to nanny for along the way.

A little bit about me

30 year old living in the Gold Coast- due to COVID, I took extra precautions and decided to postpone looking for a position as a nanny. As every family would probably agree, it has been a challenging year, and I have decided to resume my search as I recognize now is a critical time for those needing help with their child/children. I am a few credits shy of my education degree but came to Chicago to persue a degree in child psychology at DePaul, with an emphasis in special needs- ranging from behavioral issues to cognitive issues.

I only have one nanny job listed here as the rest of my work with children has been in a professional setting. Most recently, I was a nanny to a wonderful 2 year old boy prior to the family moving away from Chicago. I am looking to work in the city or have a reasonable commute with the next family I work for.

I love being outdoors, photography, weather, writing, visiting home (Door County, WI), running, cooking, gardening, and working with kids.

A little bit about me

When I wasn’t younger , I wold babysit my baby cousins and loved it ! I was the eldest of them all and having a large family with many babies meant I had to be the babysitter but I kept them entertained and never got tired of being with them . I liked babysitting so much that in middle school, I volunteered with the YMCA as a teacher assistant and all my little students became my besties whom I couldn’t wait to see everyday for work . I feel kids need genuine and specific care at all times because they are constantly learning and growing . From previous experience I can say I am great at taking specific instructions, and am also good at taking the initiative and make best decisions during any situation with any child. This isn’t a job this is a passion and an important task. I have beauty school from Monday to Friday from 9AM to 3PM , and am free other than those hours. I hope to see your lovely faces soon 🌞💖

A little bit about me

I'm a fun-loving, creative, nuturing child care professional who has been working with kids for over 10 years now. I've worked with children of all ages, backgrounds, and needs over the past years. I’ve supported families long term through mental and behavioral crisis’, private family changes that have involved travel and temporary moving to help, showing adaptability, grace, and safe spaces for children first always.

While I have plenty of experience with elementary to middle school age children, my sweet spot is with infants and beyond. Currently, I am finishing up the sweetest full time infant care position through Chicago Super Sitters ending the last week of February :)

My availability will be flexible after this as I am currently focusing my free time on completing Doula certification. Ideally I’d love another temporary full time position, but would consider long term contracts with the right family. Please reach out with any questions or references!

A little bit about me

Hi! I was born and raised in California, and while the West Coast will always be home, the East Coast has long called to me. I visited Chicago once and felt an immediate connection—it stayed with me in a way no other city has. Now, at a point in my life where I feel the most stable I’ve ever been, it feels like the perfect time to make that transition, experience true city living, and settle into this next chapter with intention.

Professionally, I work remotely as an Account Manager for a luxury consignment company, where I’m immersed in the world of fashion, craftsmanship, and high-end design. I’m drawn to luxury because it values quality, longevity, and attention to detail—principles I naturally bring into childcare as well. Outside of work, I’m a travel enthusiast who enjoys discovering new places, spending time near the beach (which truly has my heart), exploring fashion and design, and embracing new experiences that bring perspective and balance to daily life.
