The staff at CCN has an amazing combination of skills and experience in the nanny world. They truly take the time getting to know families and nannies so that each side can find the perfect fit. Even after connecting nannies and families CCN provides learning and support. The knowledgeable staff is always available to answer questions and assist with issues or situations that arise. They take the time to check in after being placed as well. I love CCN!

I have really enjoyed working with Collegiate Nannies. I have found two families through them.

I was really really impressed when 6 months into a position, I was dealing with an extremely difficult situation and wasn't sure how to handle it. I called Lydia and while we were on the phone, I needed to go. Even though I had already been in the position for quite some time, she did call me back and while I had already worked my situation out, it really meant a lot!

Let me tell you, it wasn't as easy as we were expecting. After endless interviews, we couldn't find someone we liked. We decided to take the next step and look into agencies. Upon first meeting with Katie and Hannah, we knew The Uncanny Nanny was the right choice. They instantly put you at ease. They understand how important this decision is and are there for you every step of the way. Within a week of our first meeting, they already had a handful of very qualified potential nannies for us to interview. We are so thrilled with the choice we made and Ava absolutely loves her nanny. I couldn't be happier with the service I received. I now go to work everyday completely at ease, knowing my daughter is in the best hands possible. I would recommend The Uncanny Nanny to anyone. Trust these girls, you won't be disappointed! Thanks again, Katie and Hannah!

She couldn't make the time she originally asked for a call so we found a new time that worked for us. When I shared her fees were too high so this isn't what we were looking for, she asked for the other nanny service places I had spoken with. She pointed out a specific company and was telling me they cost more, which is not what they offered me. She quickly got combative and then said yeah, daycare is the best route for you after I generally mentioned what we were looking into with no specific details. I found her unprofessional and I wouldn't recommend a company that treats potential clients this way.

Five years after having our first, Marybell did it again!

She guided us through the Covid-era nanny interviewing process, and we were able to hire a nanny with great references who is SO nurturing, proactive, and reliable. Marybell is patient, responsive, and really cares about finding a good match between nanny and family. Marybell takes the stress out of locating a fantastic nanny, which is one less thing to worry about before returning to work. Absolutely worth the investment.

Maria's Nanny Agency fulfilled those expectations in every sense possible and I'm glad I was referred to them by one of my coworkers. I had a work-related conference and my wife was out-of-state visiting family, so I hired them for a short period to take care of my two kids while they were at their grandparents. The nanny executed her responsibilities perfectly, even with some of the specific requests I had. My kids have some picky eating habits and mannerisms that make them a task to deal with. We've had some nannies before, which did not end up working out because of our high expectations. I can say with confidence that our nanny from Maria's Nanny Agency did at excellent job at managing the kids, with particular attention to the details I had noted. Came back from my work engagement with happy kids and happy grandparents. She has a very natural way with kids and a demeanor that made me comfortable with her being responsible for my children. I shared my experience with my coworker and she was not surprised as she had a great experience as well. Definitely give Maria's Nancy Agency my highest recommendation for whatever needs you may have for watching or care-taking your children. I hope to be using this nancy service in the future if the needs comes up again. Thanks again.

As luck would have it Little Faces was right in between our home in North Center and his job. We could not be more impressed with Little Faces. When we went for the tour all the kids were so HAPPY to be there. From ages 3 months to five years old, all the children were laughing and playing well together. The atmosphere is clean, and they separate the infants from the toddlers for nap time which was definitely helpful for our 6 month old. The backyard is full of developmentally appropriate toys and is also very safe. Ampaya, who runs the daycare, is the warmest and kindest woman you could ever meet. She LOVES our son and keeps such wonderful care of him. Her partner, Natalia, is also wonderful. Over the past few months they have sent me such cute pictures of my son, and have always kept me updated. This is a gem on Spaulding and I would highly recommend it to anyone in the Irving Park/ North Center/ Avondale area. The prices are completely reasonable, and since they are licensed by DCFS you can use your Flex Spending daycare money at this business. We have recommended this place to so many people so make sure to call today if you're looking for a daycare because spots fill up quickly!

She is also a mom and as a new mom back then, I was very relieved to have someone who could not only care for my infant but to also guide me along the way. Fast forward over a year later and I became pregnant with my 2nd. Becca found out that I was pregnant the same day that my husband did. She was doula training and I was excited and lucky to have her in my life and on this journey with us. Becca was a big part of my post partum plan, including coming to the hospital WITH my then 19 month old and my mom who lives out of state (and doesnt drive downtown). She did 3 overnights with us so that I could get some much needed rest and she's been a solid post partum support for me, my newborn, and my toddler who also adores her so much. Becca is not only amazing in the support she provides, she's a great person inside and out. She's practical in every way and she is there to support mamas in the ways we need, exactly when we need it most. I can assure you that you will not regret making her a part of your post partum plan.

We are moving out of state and leaving WPK was without a doubt the hardest part of leaving Chicago. They take holiday fun VERY seriously, have very little staff turnover, send photos and updates through the app all day long, and create a gentle routine that is perfect for each age. Get on the waitlist as soon as you find out you're pregnant or adopting/fostering, you will not regret it!!

Sent my child here starting at 3 months, and the daycare was very helpful with the transition, putting me at ease, and giving updates on how my child's day is going. Most importantly, in the year that our child has been with this daycare, there have been zero staff turnover, which I found rare when looking into other daycares. WPK has great activities planned for the kids, and helped greatly with our child transition to solids, weaning from the bottle/formula, dropping naps, etc. Highly recommend!
