A little bit about me
Hi families! My name is Claudia and I am 23 years old. I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in psychology and currently attend graduate school as I am working towards my master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling. I plan to have a career in the future providing counseling for children. I currently work at an early education center providing care for children from infancy to kindergarten age. I have been working at my center for almost 2 years and I love interacting and spending time with the children! I have most experience with infants and toddlers, but have some experience with older ages as well. I have experience in bottle feeding, diaper changes, nap time, routines, etc. I enjoy reading books with the children, making music, sensory exploration, etc. I am comfortable with light housekeeping work around the house or any errands necessary. I am reliable, flexible, and learn quickly. I have my own car, so transportation would be no issue!

A little bit about me
Hi,
my name is Klara. I am 20 years old and an undergraduate, at the University of Chicago. I have two younger siblings (one is 16 and the other one is 9), I used to take care of them when they were small, alongside my mom. I can help with laundry, swimming supervision, homework, etc. I love cooking and baking so meal preparation is not a problem. I know how to change diapers. I like to go for walks, watch movies, and play with kids. I still don't have my driver's license but I am getting one.
Thank you,
Looking forward to meeting you!

A little bit about me
My goal as a nanny is to care for, guide, instruct, protect, and teach children. I am willing to do light housekeeping such as helping children keep their rooms and play areas clean, meal prep, and laundry. If I had describe myself in five adjectives I would that I am caring, loving, committed, responsible, and diligent.

A little bit about me
Hello! My name is Savannah Fields, I'm 18 years old and am currently a student at DePaul University studying political science. I have two younger siblings who are 9 and 5 that I've taken care of very heavily the last couple of years. Before I took care of them, I did a baby sitting class in which I became cpr/first aid certified (currently expired but I'm more than willing to renew before I start working!!). During covid, I also took care of them both full time (and was paid) so I'm experienced in meal prep, stimulating playtime, and I'm a great teacher when it comes to homeschooling/homework. Before this, I was babysitting them fairly often from ages 6 months until present day, oldest beinf 9 years old. My paid jobs included lots of customer service work (which you'll see in my resume) and internships. This would be my first time taking care of other peoples kids to this extent but I'm a quick learner, flexible, super open minded, handle stress well, and I'm a hard worker!
