A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Sheyla, and I am thrilled to introduce myself. I come from Peru and am a loving mother to a 6-year-old girl. My heart has always been drawn to caring for children, which led me to earn a bachelor's degree in special education and a degree in speech therapy. Over the past 8 years, I have joyfully dedicated myself to teaching and nurturing children in Peru, including taking special courses to support those with ADHD. My experience also includes working in a nursing home, where I learned the importance of patience and kindness. I would love to bring my gentle, caring nature and expertise to your family as a nanny, creating a warm and loving environment for your little ones.

A little bit about me

Hi there! I'm Emcat, I'm 27 and I moved to Chicago four years ago. I pride myself on being very crafty, reliable in an emergency, a good cook, an even better baker, and someone who tries to keep in touch with their inner child. I've always been passionate about working with kids and making them feel seen in a world that often overlooks their value. Looking back at my own childhood, I wish I had more adults in my life that understood that, despite my age, I still deserved a seat at the table. Now whenever I work with kids I commit myself to never allowing them to feel unseen or unheard. I'm a big believer in instilling creativity, emotional intelligence, and critical thinking in young minds. My ultimate goal in working with kids is to create a kind, compassionate environment for them to flourish in!
