A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Krista 👋🏼—a caring, energetic nanny with 15 years of experience working with children of all ages. I started out babysitting and nannying, which led me to earn my Bachelor’s degree in Human Development and Family Science. I’ve worked as a lead teacher in a daycare, caring for children from 6 weeks to 6 years old, and I also have experience with elementary through high school–aged kids.

I’m also a parent myself—I have a wife and an 18-month-old daughter, which gives me a real-life appreciation for patience, flexibility, and nurturing care. I love creating a safe, inclusive, and fun environment where children feel supported, encouraged, and excited to learn. 🌈✨

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

coloring pictures, painting, dancing silly, singing songs, reading books, playing outside, going to the library, and so much more!

The most important part about being a nanny...

Is creating that special bond with the child and the parents where they begin to feel like family! I still keep in touch with the families I used to nanny for

Alicia T. - Seeking Work in Palatine

Full-Time Nanny Available in Palatine, IL: Alicia T.

I am a 53 yr old mom of 3 adult sons and a 9 yr old granddaughter. I’ve delivered mail for over 19 years but unfortunately the past 2 years I’ve been off injured. I raised my granddaughter from birth to 5 years of age. I did an amazing job with my 3 sons as a single parent. I love children and I love being a mom and granny even more. I am trustworthy and responsible. I enjoy helping them learn and grow at every stage of their young lives. I have the patience, creativity and strong understanding of child development to make me a good nanny. I feel as though I can effectively communicate with children and their parents.
