A little bit about me

My name is Mary Cleary! During the school year, I am a music teacher in Rogers Park, Chicago! I teach children 5 years old to 14 years old. I am usually in the classroom with 30 kids at a time so I'm no stranger to managing multiple kids at once! I can't wait to get a chance to talk to, and hopefully support, families in the Chicago area.

Being the oldest of four herself and a teacher, Mary has the experience of taking care of all ages and needs."

A little bit about me

I have been a teacher from [phone number hidden]-present. I am looking for a career change. I loved being a nanny and am hoping to find a family to work and do my very best for.
From [phone number hidden]:
I was a nanny to 4 boys. When I began the triplets were 6 and the youngest boy was 4.
This family became like a family to me. It was an amazing job and incredibly rewarding. I was responsible for managing the house, light cleaning, daily meal prep, managing 4 busy sport schedules, shopping, homework, all driving, and being a role model , caring adult, and responsible care giver.
I am still very close to the family. I believe Ms. Scallan could give you tremendous insight into my work ethic, moral compass, dedication, and responsibility.

"Nick was always on time, polite and curteous. He was very responsible ensuring my three boys got off of the bus safely every day. He was very active with the boys and was always playing games, sports, and other activities with them. He was very timely with responding to requests throughout the day and flexible for our changing schedules. He built a great relationship with our boys and they really enjoyed having him as a caregiver."
