A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Coleman, and I bring a diverse background in education, childcare, and mentorship. I earned my BFA in Acting from Millikin University, which has helped me develop strong communication, creativity, and patience, skills I use every day when working with kids of all ages.

I have experience as a paraprofessional working one-on-one with special needs students, where I supported both academic and personal development while maintaining close communication with teachers and families. I’ve also worked as a substitute teacher across elementary, middle, and high school levels, giving me the ability to adapt quickly to different age groups and learning styles.

I pride myself on being reliable, energetic, and attentive, while creating a safe and positive space where kids can grow and feel supported.

I’m excited about the opportunity to work with families and provide care that is both fun and dependable!

Tara M. - Seeking Work in Chicago

Part-Time Nanny Available in Chicago, IL: Tara M.

I’m a 21-year-old Irish student spending the summer in Chicago. I’ve always loved working with children and creating a fun, safe, and caring environment for them.

I come from a very family-oriented background—my mum has been a childminder for many years, so I’ve grown up around kids of all ages and naturally developed a passion for caring for them. I’m responsible, friendly, and enthusiastic, and I really enjoy helping children learn, play, and feel comfortable.

I’d love the opportunity to support a family during my time here and bring a positive, energetic presence to your home!
