A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Miriam. I am a creative, patient, and detail-oriented nanny who genuinely enjoys spending time with children. I am newer to nannying, but I have a little 9-year old brother (the age gap between us being 14 years!) who is my best friend and who I spend a lot of time with. I have also worked with children ages 8-11 for violin lessons, and still do (for about 2 years now).

By background, I am a graphic designer, having freshly graduated from the University of Illinois Chicago with a bachelor's in graphic design. This background enables me to bring a lot of hands-on creativity to my time with kids, such as craft projects, storytelling/reading books, drawing, and more.

A few things families can count on from me: dependability, clear communication, and genuine warmth. I want your children to feel excited when I show up and I want you to feel at ease leaving them with me.

I am most comfortable working with children ages 1-10 and my availability includes weekdays only.

I love being a sitter because I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and being someone they feel safe, comfortable, and happy around. I have hands-on childcare experience from helping care for my younger cousin from toddler age until she turned 6, which included playtime, meals, routines, and keeping her engaged and cared for. I also have experience working with middle school students and enjoy helping with homework, activities, and creating a positive, supportive environment. I’m patient, responsible, dependable, and attentive, and I always try to make sure children feel safe, understood, and well cared for.
