A little bit about me
Hi, my name is Melanie, and caring for children is something that truly brings me joy. As a Mexican Latina who grew up in a hardworking community, I understand the importance of patience, responsibility, and creating a nurturing space where children feel safe and valued.
I have experience as a summer counselor working with 2-3-year-olds, where I helped little ones explore, learn, and grow in a supportive environment. This experience have taught me how to listen, encourage, and adapt to the unique needs of every child.
Currently, I’m a first-year student at the University of Chicago, studying Theater and Performance Studies with the dream of becoming a dance therapist. Movement and creativity are central to how I connect with kids, whether through storytelling, games, or dance. I believe that every child deserves a caregiver who sees and supports them fully, and I would love the opportunity to provide that for your family.

A little bit about me
Hello, my name is Jessica White, and I’m 18 years old. I’ve had about three months of professional childcare experience as a camp counselor, where I was responsible for supervising children, leading activities, and ensuring a safe, fun environment. Additionally, I’ve been watching my nieces and nephews since I was 10, giving me years of hands-on experience in caring for children of all ages. I’ll be starting college this August, and I’m excited to continue building my childcare skills alongside my studies. I’m patient, responsible, and enjoy creating positive, supportive spaces where children can learn and grow. I’m eager to bring my experience and enthusiasm to a childcare role while balancing my academic goals.

A little bit about me
I have over 10+ years of experience working with children as a nanny, babysitter, Registered Behavior Technician, and Special Education Aide. Nothing brings me more joy than watching a child grow and develop into themselves. I am an organized, prompt, and consistent person which I believe sets a healthy foundation for my relationship with the child(ren) and their family. I enjoy being active, spending time outdoors, exploring local libraries and parks, and reading. I encourage a wide range of interests for the children I care for.
