"I am recommend Sofia for a nanny position. Sofia has worked with my family since February, taking care of my two young boys.Sofia has been an excellent caregiver and valuable member of our family.Sofia is responsible, kind and hard-working. We have worked with several nannies and caregivers and Sofia is at the top of our list of favorites. She is dependable, always on time and trustworthy with our kids. Our oldest son, Jacob, calls Sofia his best friend. She is extremely patient with him and creative when they play together. She makes up games with him, takes him to the park, and ensures that he is always safe and well-taken care of when they are playing. We trust Sofia completely with our kids. She is knowledgeable in how to take care of kids of many ages too. She does a great job with our baby (starting from when he was a newborn) and with our toddler. She is in tune with their needs and always addresses whatever they need very quickly. Any family would be lucky to have Sofia"

Live-In Full-Time Nanny Available in Chicago, IL: Paris H.
Hi my name is Paris Haynes I love kids I’m very good with them. I’ve been helping raise and lend a hand with kids since I was 8 years old. Kids attach to me very easily just as much as I attach to them. We just have a great bond, I believe because I’m just now really growing up myself because I’m about to be 19 so really I’m still a big kid. I love helping out others, I would love to lend a hand or help a family with their day to day lives and helping them care for their little ones. There’s nothing more important than family and as my people always say it takes a village to raise kids.
