A little bit about me
I am Jenaya (pronounced: Ju-ni-ya), I am 17 years old with my High school diploma looking for new opportunities. I have been babysitting my nieces and nephews since I was 12, and I love to cook and eat.I love working with kids because their so innocent even when their being evil, lol, and being around kids makes me feel refreshed and remember that no matter what I go through I have a future as long as I breath. I love to teach kids that life has so much to offer because I wasn’t reminded that enough when I was younger, so when I see a chance to build one up I always will. I am very passionate about helping, but I also have more to offer than what meets the eye; I have my High School Diploma but I am CPR certified, I have a food handlers license, I have over 3+ years of babysitting and taking care of younger youth, I’m also on track to getting into college for my psychology degree. I hope to hear from a loving family I can help with the little ones.

A little bit about me
My name is Diana, I'm 26 years old and I'm from Switzerland. I'm currently an international student at Harold Washington College in Chicago.
Back home, I did a 3-year apprenticeship to become a daycare educator and graduated. In those 3 years I worked with children from 1 year to 4 years old.
After graduation I started working in a daycare for one year.
From 2022 to 2024 I was an au pair in U.S and worked and lived with a family and took care of two children (boy now 7 years old and the girl is 5 years old). Through this experience, I was able to fully experience the life of a parent and better understand children's all-around behavior. Above all, I was able to gain more knowledge of the English language. As a returned home, I worked in a daycare from February until July of 2024 and I did babysit for a family.
I do speak five languages: Italian, Portuguese, English, French, German and a bit of Spanish.
I can describe myself as a creative, responsible, passionate and patient person.
