A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Lidia Tesfayohannes. I'm 18 years old and I live with my parents. I have a little bit of experience being a nanny because I have younger brothers who are twins and I take care of them a lot because my mom was single mom and I have to help her since my father wasn't living with us.

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Victoria Kricke but most people just call me tori. I just recently graduated from Capri college in iowa May 10th. I moved to Chicago May 14th and I’m already in love with the city. My major was esthetics, which means I’m a skin therapist. My whole career is based around caring for people, and helping them in every way I can with their skin. I also bring those qualities into my everyday life. I’m a very caring, down to earth person. I have a very big heart and I’m a very strong, independent individual. I’m proud of the women I am today. I’m a great listen and fast learner, so you don’t need to worry about that. I’m ready to be a nanny full time!
