A little bit about me
My name is Allison and I am a 27 year old nanny who resides in Lakeview, Chicago. I have 4 years of nannying experience and over 10 years of teaching experience. I have cared for children from the ages of 3 months, to 6 years old. I graduated from the University of Arizona with a BA in Psychology with a minor in Adolescence, Community, and Education. I am certified in CPR and First Aid and also have my Food Handler's License. I am incredibly creative, energetic, and pride myself on being a communicative employee who is dedicated to ensuring the best care for your child. I walk into every day enthusiastically and excited for a new adventure. Whether it be going to the zoo, a nearby museum, the library, or using our imagination around the house on a rainy day. As I previously mentioned, I have experience with children from newborns all the way to early elementary age which gives me the tools to create a daily routine that accommodates your family’s needs and grows as your child does.

A little bit about me
Hi! I have been babysitting since I was 12, but last fall I worked at a Montessori, then switched to another due to the long commute. I have worked in this setting for a year. However, I have realized I want to work more individually with families to support their children. I have a very open schedule and have lived in the city my whole life, as well I commute by CTA. I look forward to chatting with you!

Hi families!
My name is Vitoria and I'm currently located in Albany Park. I am offering child care full time or part time, also evenings or date nights and household services.
I have experience with newborns, infants, toddlers and school age kids. My most recent one was watching for four kids full time with ages from 7 months to 7 years old.
My responsibilities have included driving to/from school or activities, crafts, tutoring, lots of outdoor activities, meal prep for the kids and everything related to the kids and with helping their development.
I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands or drive to appointments.
My favorite activities with the kids is helping them to prepare their own meal(so much fun to see their happy and excited faces doing it), going outside to ride a bike, walk or go to the park. I also love creating new diy games that are simple and they can have a lot of fun.
I'm also comfortable working for families with dogs.
