A little bit about me
Hi there!
I am Aurora. I am 22 years old and I would consider myself a very creative person. I am detailed oriented and I like to be outside whenever it is warm enough.
I love children and I have been a nanny for 3 years now with kids from 3 months old to 11 y/o. I also worked for a year in a daycare for adults with special needs. I love to witness the wonders children are capable of. I love to see them thrive and I like to be consistent with them.

"Peggy has been an integral part of my life for many years, first as my nanny and then as a member of my family. I am 40 years old, and we still keep in regular contact because she is family. Her dedication, kindness, and unwavering commitment to my well-being left an indelible mark on my life. Peggy's ability to create a nurturing and structured environment made our home feel like a safe space. She was always patient, attentive, and responsive, ensuring that I felt supported and cared for every day.
Peggy has a natural gift for connecting with children, and she consistently demonstrated compassion, warmth, and an incredible work ethic. She was always proactive, helping with household tasks, organizing activities, and encouraging learning and development. Her genuine interest in fostering a positive and engaging environment helped shape me into the person I am today.
My wife and I have a three-year-old son and if we lived in Chicago today, we wouldn’t hesitate to hire Peggy immediately."

A little bit about me
Hello my name is Karriemah. I’m a first year college graduate. I’m currently an infant teacher and I have been one for a year and a half now. Taking care of children is something that I’ve love doing since I was a kid myself. I’ve been an aunt since the age of 6 so just imagine a 6 year old changing and feeding a baby. That brought my love for children out right there. Being able to watch a child grow is something that’s always been amazing to me. They grow into their own person with all these different personalities it’s wonderful. I hope you can give me a shot at being your nanny. Trust me you won’t regret it. We’ll have an amazing time. Can’t wait to work with you!
