Hello, my name is Colette and I am a nanny, artist and designer! My last full time nannying position was 55 hours weekly. I took care of an adorable 16-month-old girl, who I had been consistently caring for starting at one month. I still nanny for this family occasionally on weekends but am looking for another full time position. Previously, I have worked with children ranging from one month to 12 years. Typical duties have included preparing and serving meals, putting children down for naps, bottle feeding, diaper changes, going for walks, reading, tummy time, light cleaning, etc. I have also been a park district camp counselor for three to 5-year-olds. I love to craft and draw and am good at engaging kids creatively. In my free time, I love hunting for new music and going to shows. Outside of being a nanny I also work as a freelance seamstress.

Colette was our child's full time nanny from the time she was about 12 weeks old, and she was an absolutely wonderful caregiver and a huge help to our family. Not only was she very responsible and communicative, she would go above and beyond to make sure our daughter and our family had everything we needed. She was incredible flexible, too, and adjusted her hours to our needs whenever she could. This was important to us as busy first time parents and we were always grateful for her willingness to do so. Our daughter is now a toddler and Colette still babysits for us regularly, which we are all very excited about (especially the toddler)! I would highly recommend Colette as a nanny for children of all ages.
