A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Inez, and I have 3 years of experience caring for children of all ages. I’m passionate about creating a fun, safe, and educational environment for kids to grow and thrive. I enjoy activities like arts and crafts, outdoor play, and reading, and it's important to encourage curiosity and independence in children.
In my free time, I enjoy cooking, listening to jazz and going to the gym which helps me bring fresh energy to my nannying. I’m patient, reliable, and dedicated to building strong, trusting relationships with both kids and parents. I can't wait to learn more about your family and how I can help support your child's growth :)

A little bit about me
Hey there, I'm Alice! My preferred pronouns are they/she/he. I'm a senior at Columbia College Chicago studying Public Relations, with a focus in sustainability. After so much time on zoom the last two years, I'm looking to spend more time connecting in person while finishing up school.
I grew up in a big family, so I was always chasing around nieces/nephews/cousins and love spending time with children.
I love learning, asking questions, and being asked questions! I think that so much of who we are in life comes from listening to those around us, so I try to always listen as well as share about myself.
I have classes on Mondays and Wednesdays, but my schedule is open and flexible other than that.
