A little bit about me
I am 21 years old and have been taking care of kids all my life. Family, friends, clients. I have done lots of nanny jobs with consistent families for long periods of time, and have worked at after school programs, birthday party planning for children, summer camps, etc. I have a natural passion for children and I am looking for a full-time family needing child care assistance. I would be able to watch over the children, help with homework, do fun and safe activities, go to the park, meal prep, etc. I am eager for an experience like this!

A little bit about me
My first ever babysitting job was for a family with a 2-year-old child. I started babysitting at the age of 17 when I was a Junior in high school. As of now, I have babysat for a few family friends for kids of all ages, such as 4, 6 and 9. Also, I currently babysit for a family with 2 kids, one girl that is almost a year old, and a boy that is 3. Also for a family with 2 kids, one boy and one girl the ages of 5 and 6 and another family with 2 kids, 2 girls the ages of 6 and 9. As a 19-year-old, I am very responsible when it comes to caring for children. It is my responsibility to fulfil my job and make sure your child is in safe hands and that they have fun! I am an active person myself, so I love spending time outdoors. If your child is in elementary school, I would be able to help them homework from any subject. I also speak fluent Polish and have been taking Spanish for the past 3 years. I am a graduate of Lincoln Park High School from the International Baccalaureate Program. I currently am attending Loyola University in Chicago, majoring in the Nursing Program. I do have a drivers license, with a clean driving record, and am able to use my parent's car if needed. I am able to start ASAP! I am done with classes for the school year and am looking for a summer job as of now. I find out my fall schedule in July, so I would be able to know if i can stay long term in July. If you have any other questions feel free to message me.!

"We can’t say enough wonderful things about Sarah. From the very first day, she brought calm, confidence, and genuine love into our home. She is so much more than a nanny; she is a natural caregiver who truly understands children and meets them where they are. Sarah is patient, creative, and deeply attuned to each child’s emotional and developmental needs. Our kids absolutely adore her. Whether she is engaging them in imaginative play, helping with schoolwork, or guiding daily routines, she does everything with warmth and structure. She turns everyday moments into meaningful opportunities for learning and connection. Sarah is also incredibly reliable, organized, and proactive, keeping our home running smoothly with kindness and grace. She quickly became part of our family, and we trust her completely. Any family fortunate enough to have Sarah will see how exceptional she is: steady, nurturing, and wholeheartedly devoted."

A little bit about me
The prompt said to keep it short and sweet, and well, that is exactly what I am! I am about 4'11 and a very enthusiastic nanny that loves to get the kids interacted in games indoors and outdoors. I have a major passion for art, so I always try to involve crafts into the day. I have a dream to use art in a therapeutic setting in order to help a child gain insight into how their mind works and how they can better control it! I enjoy playing games outside and keeping the screen time to a minimum. I am willing to work with all ages and can handle four to six kids with ease. I do not mind having a list of chores, errands, and meal prep during the week and can provide occasional weekend assistance as well. My goal is to provide as much peace for your home as I can manage. I am willing to learn and accommodate however I can aswell.
