A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Carolina. I live in little village. I'm 21, I'm currently saving up for a car because I'm in desperate need of one. I have some experience. I take care of my little brother who is four and some cousins who are 3 to 5 years old. I help my mom take care of my 9 month old cousin. I can cook some things such as rice, soup, eggs, mac and cheese, chorizo, pancakes- minor things. I wash dishes, do my own laundry, sweep and mop here and there. I love kids, I grew up with them, so I'm used to it. I play with my little brother and I do learning activities with him. I'm learning sign language, I know every little because my niece doesn't speak, she only uses sign language so I tend to learn more from her. That's all I can think of for now :)

A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Michaela, a Chicago native who left for high school and university and is now coming back to work as a nanny. I am the youngest of my siblings; though, my oldest brother is special-needs, so I grew up taking on a caregiver role.

I started babysitting for other families while attending boarding high school. My paid experience is mainly working with children 4 to 14 years old, though I have babysat for younger family members as well. I have maintained a CPR and first aid certification since high school.

Outside of work, I am a passionate reader, artist, and baker. I love to spend my time volunteering at local animal shelters as well.

I’m looking forward to stepping into this new role as a full time nanny. I appreciate you taking the time to read through my profile, and I look forward to talking to you more soon!
