University of Illinois - Nannies

Hi, I'm Jacqueline! I have been a child care provider for over 15 years and continue to love it. I am currently employed as a full time nanny for three children (ages 3, 6, and 9) and have been with the family for 4 years. In the past I have been employed both as a full time nanny and a babysitter and have confidently cared for children aged newborn-teen. Aside from childcare I've also worked with children in tutoring, mentoring, and educational contexts. Additionally, I have worked in the foster care system and care deeply about child safety and family well-being. In my free time I love to read, spend time outside hiking and biking, spend time with friends and family, and cook/bake. I have a passion for education and empowerment; I am always looking for ways to encourage children to learn about the world around them and discover who they are in new and exciting ways. I strive to instill a sense of empowerment and self-confidence in every child (and every person) that I encounter.

I am a type one diabetic so I am comfortable administering medications, I have my own transportation, and am comfortable with pets. References available upon request!

Hi! My name is Patti. I have over 25 years of childcare experience. I have a BA in Liberal Arts from the University of Illinois with a focus on Sociology/Children & Families. I began my career as a lead teacher at a Learning Center in Illinois. My room was the 2-year-old room, but I did substitute in other rooms periodically. After my daughter was born, I opened a licensed home daycare, originally in Illinois and then in 2002 in Tucson. I cared for newborns all the way up to 10-year-olds and everything in between! We read, did dramatic play, did a lot of art and arts & crafts, did a lot of singing and dancing, and I had a preschool program I used with the preschool age children. I had the home daycare for almost 12 years. Since then, I have been a nanny for individual families. One child was 7 months old when I started. I cared for him until he was about 20 months old and still watch him from time to time. I cared for twin girls who were 6 months old when I started caring for them and I continued to care for them until they were 14 months old. I cared for a 3-month-old girl and then her baby brother until they were 3 and 1, and once in a while their older twin brothers. Most recently I cared for a little girl who was 19 months old when I started and just started preschool at 27 months. I offer a loving, safe, creative environment filled with opportunities for learning, exploring, growing, and having fun. I offered a wide range of age appropriate activities for the children. I watched many of the children from infant/toddler until they went to kindergarten and loved every minute of it. My goal is to make sure the parents feel as comfortable as possible going to work, knowing their child/children are safe, loved and well cared for with an experienced nanny. And to make sure the child/children have happy days where they know they're loved and feel safe and grow well. I'm comfortable with pets, have my own car (with insurance), have my CPR and First Aid training and can provide references upon request.

Hello, I'm Ashley! I'm from Oak Park, IL and I'm a nursing major at the University of Illinois I love working with kids and have so for about 7 years. I have extensive infant and childcare experience as I was a teacher's assistant at a local daycare for 4 years with children's ages ranging from 6 weeks - 6 years. This past summer I had the amazing opportunity of nannying many children apart of different families. I am a certified nursing assistant and healthcare CPR certified by the American Heart Association and the Red Cross. I have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 since March of 2021 and received my booster at the beginning of December. While working with children I learned that you have to have a lot of empathy and be able to place yourself in their shoes as a child. Many things that we find small can be something huge for a child.
