A little bit about me
As an experienced childcare professional, I bring a unique blend of educational and clinical expertise to the table. My background includes extensive work in museum settings, where I designed and led engaging, educational activities for children of all ages. This experience has honed my ability to create fun and enriching environments.
Currently, I serve as an assistant clinician, specializing in working with children ages 5-11 on the autism spectrum. This role has equipped me with specialized skills in creating individualized education plans, and therapeutic techniques tailored to the unique needs of these children. My work is driven by a deep commitment to fostering growth, learning, and well-being in every child I work with.
In addition to my professional experience, I am thoroughly trained in safety procedures. I am proficient in the use of an epi-pen and trained in seizure care, ensuring that I can provide a safe and responsive environment for children with medical needs.

A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Patty, I’m 27 years old. I’ve been nannying for about 6 years, first in the LA area then in Chicago. As a full-time nanny I have worked with a variety of family situations and have always found ways to provide support. I nurture children’s curiosity with learning games, music and simply answering their questions about the world they’re stepping into. Ensuring children have a safe space for their minds and personalities to flourish is my priority. I have experience with babies as young as 14 weeks. In previous roles, I have been able maintain clear and open lines of communication with families. I find that this offers peace of mind and parents value the input and ability to maintain and set expectations. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss this further and I am available for a conversation at any time. I am able to provide a resume and references upon request. If you think we’d be a good fit please don’t hesitate to reach out. Have a wonderful rest of your day
