A little bit about me

Hi! I am an infant career nanny! I am on the lookout for my next placement in the city with a family with an infant. I'm available to start in early October. I have experience with infants and toddlers beginning at 3 months, as well as nanny shares and sibling care. I am up to date on my CPR/First aid certification, and I have taken courses in beginners ASL and newborn care! I am passionate about early literacy through reading, singing, and talking to your baby about our day. I love to plan developmentally appropriate activities and outings as babies grow and I have experience with forming/joining playgroups with other nannies and caregivers! Light, baby-related housework, meal planning & prep, and baby bedroom/playroom organization are included in my flat rate! I'd love to support your baby and your growing family's needs. Please reach out if you'd like to talk more!

"When we began the search for a nanny we’d hoped to find someone that fit into our lives like family, and then we found Kya! Not only did Kya love our kids, but she provided expert care and guidance that helped take stress off us as parents. She helped with baby led weaning, made sure our infant was meeting all milestones, and always provided fun and engaging activities."

The most important part about being a nanny...

The connection you build with the family! For me, nannying is truly about building community. I am so grateful for all of the trust my nanny families have placed in me; it is not lost on me how precious it is to have a great relationship with a nanny family.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Adrienne J. - Seeking Work in Chicago

Full-Time Child Care Provider Available in Chicago, IL: Adrienne J.

Hi!

My name is Adrienne Jones, and I am from Memphis, Tennessee. I have lived in Memphis my whole life, and am moving to the Chicago area in August of 2027 with my best friends!

I have been a nanny for the past 7 years to the sweetest, smartest kids ever! (there’s 7 of them! I’ve been doing a nanny share for two sisters, so I watch alllll the cousins together every day) In fact, when I started nannying for their families, there were only 4 kids between them! Being with their families has been an absolute honor and privilege. I owe most of everything I know about infants, toddlers, and big kids to the precious parents and those 7 (now big) kids!

Before working with these families, I taught at my church’s preschool, worked at a mom’s day out program, and babysat every chance I could. I have been so intrigued and encouraged by little minds for as long as I can remember!

I’m hoping to find another family (or families for a nanny share) to partner with, and make lifelong memories with!
