Hello! My name is Zara. I am 27yrs old and a professional dancer. I moved to NYC from the SF Bay Area as a freelance dancer, and now pivoting from my dance career into administrative roles. While I’m job searching, I'd love to take care of your precious kiddos. I am available for occasional sittings. I graduated from Dominican University of California in 2020 with a Bachelors of Fine Arts degree in dance through Alonzo King LINES Ballet in San Francisco. Throughout my time in college and after graduating, I sat for various families in the Bay Area. I’ve now acquired 7 years of experience. I am originally from Columbia, Maryland, and I am one of 9 children. I grew up with many pets, including cats, guinea pigs, a bunny and bearded dragon, so I am very comfortable with any of your pets. I started with occasional sittings, then transitioned to part-time work as a nanny for a little 5-year old girl in San Francisco Fall 2019. Following, I worked in San Rafael Sep 2020-Feb 2021 as a nanny part-time for 5yr and 3yr old boys. Afterwards, I worked as a live-in nanny in Kailua, HI Feb-June 2021. During my time in Hawaii, I looked after 9yr and 3yr old sisters full-time, as well as occasional sittings for the other children who lived on our lane. Ages range from 6 months-9yr. I now continue occasional sittings. I have created some long-lasting connections with the families I've sat for. It is a joy to get to know the kids, and I make it a priority to address the children's needs first, to serve as a role model and be a positive influence, and have fun! Please don’t hesitate to reach out, I am happy to provide any references and speak with you and your family.

I have taken care of children since I was very young. I raised three boys who are now young adults. I have always loved children and enjoy engaging in all kinds of activities with them from imaginative play, reading books, cooking and exploring the great outdoors. I take this job very seriously and realize that you are entrusting me with your most precious treasure. I put care into the children as if they were my own but also defer to the parents as to their parenting practices, so that we are always on the same page. I am waiting for a family who will find value and appreciate what I have to offer as an experienced mother and someone who truly loves and values quality childcare. I have expertise with newborns, babies and toddlers. I have been a first-time caregiver for many families. This is not just a job for me. It’s something that I love. I also speak Spanish which I could teach your child if you so desire. I have been screened and background tested through a Nanny agency in Marin called Rent A Parent which I have been doing temporary work for.

I recently moved to Chicago upon completion of my degree in dance through the Alonzo King Lines Ballet. Throughout the last 7 years, I have built up a plethora of experience nannying families of all types in an effort to support my professional dance journey. I've worked with families with up to four children, as well cared for families with kids as young as newborns and as old as teenagers (both in part-time and full-time capacities). Additionally, I have extensive experience with kids with disabilities. In all these roles, I have been known for building genuine connections, maintaining organization, and stepping in wherever needed! Whether it be niche tasks you ask to be fulfilled or little things you didn't even know you needed taking care of, I bring a thoughtful, caring, and hands-on approach to care. I am looking forward to helping families in the area and growing my range of community here in a new city. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions! I am happy to provide more information about myself as well as a number of references and a full caretaking resume at your request.
