As a busy working mom, I understand the value of incredible child care. Having a trusted, reliable caregiver for your child is something that can seem impossible to find. Above all, where do you start? I want you to be able to find the best possible child care for you and your family, without stress or worry. I have compiled a list of five of the best Chicago babysitting and nannying agencies, including those who service the surrounding suburbs.
Why Use An Agency To Find Your Babysitter or Nanny?
I know that as moms, we don’t have all the time in the world to research, interview, and vet our own childcare. Agencies like these understand that and want to do all of that for you. The two most important factors in choosing childcare:
- The safety of your child
- The trust in your childcare and how they fit into your family
Babysitting and nannying agencies are here to give you the best for your family in a streamlined process. I want you to have peace of mind when finding the right agency for you.
North Shore Mama Co. Chicagoland
North Shore Mama Co. is woman-owned and founded. They offer comprehensive babysitting and nannying services to Chicago and surrounding suburbs. With a very thorough background check and interview process for nannies, I know they have the best. Through a matchmaking process, families are paired with a nanny and then given a trial period. North Shore Mama Co. only does long-term placements.
Our Joy Infant Care Chicagoland
Our Joy Infant care, like all on this list, is woman-owned and founded. I love that they specialize in night nurses and night nannies who are either a Registered Nurse (RN) or a Newborn Care Specialist. The focus is to establish a solid nighttime routine and sleep schedule for your baby. Joy Infant Care gives new and repeat mamas all the possible care for their newborn. They offer both short-term or long-term placements.
Chicago Super Sitters Chicago
Chicago Super Sitters is one of the top nanny and babysitting agencies in Chicago. First, there is an extremely rigorous vetting process of all the nannies on their roster. Then is the matchmaking process to pair nannies and families. This agency is subscription-based, so families pay a monthly fee to be connected with their nannies. I love that they offer childcare for a date night! They also offer long-term recurring placements.
Second City Nannies Chicago
Another woman-owned and founded Chicago babysitting agency, Second City Nannies has an amazing pairing process between its nannies and families. Second City Nannies offers two to three nannies for families to have their choice. All nannies are pre-screened with background checks, social media presence, and reference verification. They offer different packages with short-term and long-term placements.
Mom’s Best Friend Chicago
Founded in 1994, this is a family run babysitting agency servicing Chicago. They offer various child care services, from nannying to an in-home private tutor for your child. Similarly, their nannies go through a comprehensive screening process before working with families. Afterward, there is a second tier background check once a family approves the nanny to work with them. Mom’s Best Friend provides short and long-term placements.
I understand how daunting it can be to try to find childcare that you can trust. These five top-reviewed Chicago babysitting agencies are ones I know will give you the best. You can breathe a sigh of relief knowing that these agencies will give you and your family exactly what you need.
