A little bit about me

Hi! I'm Anna, I recently graduated from Wellesley College before moving to Chicago last June.

I have years of experience working in caretaking, educator, coaching, and babysitting roles. Currently I work as a preschool teacher with children ages 2-5. While I love the work in the classroom I am looking for the opportunity to build a relationship with a caring, loving family looking for consistent, reliable, and holistic caretaker!

I am bilingual (English-Spanish), active, and love to be outside. Outside of work I enjoy trying new restaurants in the city and playing with my cat Marcello.

Please feel free to message me with any questions or comments; I look forward to responding as soon as possible!
