More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I have been a volunteer in a domestic violence safe home, providing child care while the mother's attended support groups and therapy. I have also grown up volunteering in nurseries!

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love being outdoors and exploring! I am also a very crafty person and love doing crafts and experiments. In past roles, we've enjoyed going to the zoo, museums, parks, and swimming!

The most important part about being a nanny...

is creating a day-to-day space where kids are supported, safe, having fun, and exploring new things. Especially in the summer, I believe it is incredibly important to keep kids engaged and active. I also believe an important part of being a nanny is understanding the families wants and needs. Nannies should be able to fit into this family and continue the rules, work, and expectations of parents! This makes for happier kids, parents, and nannies.

Lorena S. - Seeking Work in Chicago

Babysitter Available in Chicago, IL: Lorena S.

Hi! My name is Lorena. While I may not have formal nanny experience, I’m a mother myself to two children ages 6 and 4, so I truly understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy, patient, and caring watching over your children.

I’ve always been very involved in my children’s education and daily routines, and I take pride in raising them to be respectful, independent, and confident. I’m also bilingual in English and Spanish, and I really enjoy teaching my children both languages because I believe it’s such a valuable skill for them to have as they grow.

I’m also very big on Montessori-style learning and encouraging children to achieve their daily goals in a fun, positive, and independent way. My experience as a caregiver has strengthened my patience, compassion, and love for caring for others, and I would love the opportunity to bring that same energy and support to another family
