Experience: 10 yrs
Using my 7 years of experience as a daycare and preschool teacher for a Montessori-based program and many college courses on Early Childhood Development, I built an 8 year career as a nanny and home manager for a family of 5 in Chicago. I believe that, as one who works with children, I should emulate patience and provide guidance, enthusiasm, and most of all love with a calm, welcoming demeanor. In my experience, these attributes have a high success in fostering a child's love for learning, independence, and creativity. A caretaker should be one that works with parents to provide for their child's needs, with open communication about goals, concerns, and milestones. I am also an advocate for early literacy and would be thrilled to provide interactive, daily plans that incorporate books, art, and music into your child's routine! I also love to support a family by facilitating a tidy and organized home and am happy to offer those services if communicated.
After eight years with our family, it's hard to imagine anyone better. She joined us when our youngest was an infant and has grown alongside our three children into the tween years, caring for them with incredible love, patience, and consistency every step of the way. She is exceptionally reliable, highly organized, and has managed everything from school pickups and activities to meal prep, homework support, and driving. More than that, she has been a true partner in raising our children— facilitating their interests, supporting their education, and celebrating who they are. Anyone can find a nanny. Very few families are lucky enough to find someone they want as part of their family throughout so much of their children's childhood. We did, and we couldn't recommend her more highly.
