A little bit about me
I'm a Chicago-based nanny with six years of full-time experience caring for kids from newborns to teenagers, including a colicky newborn and, in another family, six kids at once. I've done it all: feeding and sleep routines, school runs, homework, sports, rehearsals, and lots of park adventures.
I also love keeping the household running smoothly, from laundry, bottles, and meal prep to errands, appointments, and tidy, organized kids' spaces, so you come home to calm instead of a to-do list.
I'm a trained chef, so your kids get healthy meals they'll actually eat, and a strong swimmer who has taught kids to swim and ride bikes. I'm also a native German speaker from Austria, so if you'd love a second language at home, we can weave it in through songs, books, and games.
I believe kids thrive on warmth, consistency, and clear boundaries, and parents thrive on open communication. You'll always know how the day went. I'd love to meet your family! 💛

A little bit about me
In my most recent nanny role, I cared for two young boys, including a child with epilepsy and frequent seizures. My responsibilities included meals, medications and medical needs, school transportation, homework, structured activities, potty training, laundry, light household organization, and caring for the family’s dogs.
I’m dependable, nurturing, organized, proactive, and comfortable managing a busy household. I value becoming a trusted, long-term part of a family’s life while respecting their routines, privacy, and parenting style. I’m also comfortable with pets and flexible with scheduling, including occasional evenings and weekends. I’d love to connect and learn more about 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.
