"Bennett is absolutely amazing! She is mature well beyond her years. From the moment we met, I was incredibly impressed by how naturally she connected with my daughter, who has special needs. My daughter is non-verbal, yet Bennett seemed to understand her right away—it was truly remarkable. I ended up hiring Bennett that very same day.
Since then, she has been an absolute dream for our family. She is trustworthy, reliable, and consistently goes above and beyond. Most importantly, she is someone children truly adore. I always feel at ease knowing my daughter is not only well cared for, but genuinely loved every time she is with Bennett.
I would wholeheartedly recommend her to any family, especially those with children who have special needs. She brings a rare level of patience, intuition, and compassion that makes all the difference."

The most important part about being a nanny...
One of my favorite nanny moments was letting one of my nanny kids dress herself all on her own. By the time she was done, every piece of clothing was backwards and inside out, even her socks!! It was such a funny but sweet moment, and I loved seeing how proud she was of herself!

Full-Time Nanny Available in Elburn, IL: Angelia B.
Hi, I am Angelia. I love working with kids & it has always been my goal to help them grow, teach them new skills, create a comfortable space, & make sure they have correct guidance but also have lot’s of fun. I started babysitting in middle school because I had many neighbors around me with younger kids that needed help watching over them. In my early adult years when I was 17-18 I started taking on Nannying Jobs. My first Nanny Position I watched 3 kids, ages 1, 3, & 3. I was able to grow with this family for a couple years until there kids went to school. My second Nanny Position was also with 3 kids again, ages 2, 4, & 6. I grew with that family for a few years & helped by taking the children to Kindergarten, First Grade, Music Classes, and overall house duties. My Next Nanny position was for parents who worked from home watching there under 1 year old and I grew with them until their child turned 2, and they moved out state. During that time I also babysat for 6 plus families.
