Live-In Part-Time Nanny Available in Island Lake, IL: Anaika A.
I have extensive hands-on caregiving experience that began at a very young age. Starting at age 11, I helped raise my younger siblings from infancy—my sister, who is now 12, and my brother, who is now 7. I was deeply involved in their daily care, including changing diapers, dressing them, preparing and feeding meals, engaging in play, helping with homework, and driving them to school and extracurricular activities as they grew older. This gave me real-life, long-term experience with children at every developmental stage.
In addition to caring for my own siblings, I have worked as a nanny for multiple families, providing attentive, reliable, and nurturing care tailored to each child’s needs. I also worked at a children’s daycare, where I regularly cared for infants in the baby room. In this role, I was responsible for supervising, feeding, soothing, and maintaining the safety of up to four babies at a time and occasionally five or six while following structured routines and safety.
