More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
As an auntie of several (7 months-11 years), I currently provide childcare for 6 children, 5 days a week. My duties include: homework (reading, writing, math), teacher check-ins, field trip chaperone, transportation to/from school and extracurricular activities, meal provision (I love cooking!), household cleaning, changing diapers, nap time, movie nights, bedtime stories and overall nurturing.
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
Painting/Art, building forts, teaching/helping with homework, playing games, using our imagination.
The most important part about being a nanny...
The most important part about being a nanny is the child or children’s perspective. Does the child feel comfortable, heard, nurtured? Do they seem to be progressing in any way? Are they expressing positive behavior and habits? Each of these questions are directly correlated with the nanny’s influence. It is important to me to fulfill the needs of the child, full-court. Or in other words, beyond the basics of making sure they are fed and without broken bones. A nanny should make it a priority to learn the child and connect with them on a meaningful level. That approach is imperative in becoming the “stand-in” figure that is a nanny’s role in a family dynamic.
My experience with special needs children...
I have experience with caring for children on the autistic spectrum, neurodivergency such as ADHD/ADD, as well as unique learning needs such as dyslexia.
The most important part about being a nanny...
My oldest nephew (11 yrs old) has a new interest in basketball. He was so excited to master dribbling but was having trouble shooting the ball. We practiced together and with encouragement, he made his first three! He immediately ran to me and hugged me while saying “WOAH! How did I do that? How did YOU know I could do that?!”. I encourage each of them to pursue their talents, whatever that might be depending on the week, and I love instilling in them that they can and will achieve anything they set their heart on. It was nice to know that he really does receive and internalize my love and encouragement—so much so that it reassures/motivates him. Moments like those are truly priceless.

Part-Time Nanny Available in Chicago, IL: Emily H.
Hello!
My name is Emily, I am a 20 year old college student studying occupational therapy for children. I am very much interested In being your after school sitter as I feel like this could be potentially a great match for both! Before the pandemic I was a summer recreational leader for the CPD at a local park where I would oversee the care, safety, and the activities to keep 20 kids active all day. Besides this I have volunteered at a local daycare center and I’m actively taking on occasional babysitting positions for children around 3-10 years old so I have plenty of experience not only caring for but also tutoring if that is of interest at any point in time. I absolutely love taking care of children and I do love working with various age groups as I am working to be the best in my career as a pediatric OT. I’d love to get to know you more as well so if you have any questions or any concerns please feel free to reach out and I look forward to hearing from you soon.
