Hi! I’m a caring, dependable, and patient caregiver with experience working with children, seniors, and individuals with special needs. As a parent of an autistic child, I understand the importance of patience, communication, routine, and creating a safe and supportive environment for every child’s unique needs. I enjoy helping families by providing reliable childcare, engaging activities, meal prep, homework help, bedtime routines, and compassionate care. I also have experience assisting elderly individuals with companionship and daily support. My goal is always to make children feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while giving parents peace of mind.

Hi! My name is Myshira, and I’m a dedicated, dependable, and nurturing caregiver with a genuine passion for working with children. I’m a proud mom of three toddlers, CPR certified, and work as a Medical Assistant, giving me a strong background in health, safety, and compassionate care. I also serve as the secretary at my church, a role that has strengthened my organizational skills, reliability, and commitment to serving others. I’ve been babysitting since I was 13 years old, which has given me years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages. My goal is always to provide a safe, loving, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and encouraged to learn and have fun. I enjoy helping with homework, preparing nutritious meals and snacks, and baking fun treats with kids. I’m also comfortable caring for family pets, including cats. My personality is warm, patient, outgoing, and energetic, and I truly enjoy building positive relationships with both children and their families. I take pride in being someone parents can trust to care for their children as if they were my own.

I’m a college student who has always loved being around children and helping care for them. I grew up in a neighborhood with a lot of younger kids, so I was always around children and enjoyed babysitting, playing with them, and helping out whenever I could. More recently, I had the opportunity to work as a full-time nanny, which gave me much more hands-on experience and helped me realize how much I genuinely enjoy being a caregiver. As a nanny, I became comfortable with the everyday responsibilities that come with caring for children, including keeping them safe and entertained, preparing meals and snacks, helping with homework, coming up with activities, and keeping up with routines and schedules. I really enjoy finding activities that match a child's personality and interests rather than just keeping them occupied. I also understand that every family has their own routines and expectations, and I’m very comfortable adapting to what works best for them. I would describe myself as patient, caring, responsible, dependable, and easygoing. I’m someone who stays calm when things get hectic and understands that kids can have good days and difficult days. I think one of the most important parts of being a caregiver is making children feel comfortable, listened to, and cared for while still providing structure when they need it. I’m also very attentive to the little things. I want parents to feel comfortable knowing that their children are safe and that I’m paying attention to what they need. I enjoy building relationships with the families I work with and becoming someone they can trust and rely on. I’m not just looking to watch kids for a few hours—I really enjoy getting to know them, being involved in their day, and making sure they have a positive experience while they’re in my care. Overall, my previous nanny experience, years of being around younger children, and genuine love for working with kids are what I feel make me a great caregiver. I’m excited to continue gaining experience with different families and children and hopefully become someone a family feels completely comfortable having as part of their routine.

Hi, I'm Briana, and I have 3+ years of experience in childcare working with various ages. Am passionate about working with children, educating myself, and improving any way I can!

Hi! I'm Ariana. I'm a college graduate from Loyola University Chicago with a major in sociology and minor in urban studies. I love studying people and am a very empathetic individual, always staying in touch with others. I have been babysitting for other families since I was 11 years old, starting with friends of my moms and then expanding my work to neighbors and their friends through word of mouth. I am also the oldest in my family, including no older cousins, so I have a natural instinct to take care of others. I have babysat kids of all ages, from infants to middle schoolers and also have experience with children who have disabilities. These experiences include attention disorders, hearing aids, feeding tubes, etc. From October 2020-present, I have worked with children ages infant-11 as a teacher's assistant at the South East Asia Center. My most valuable time has been within the 2 and 3 year old classroom where I create lesson plans, communicate daily with parents about the progress of their children, and facilitate activities. I am intermediate/advanced level Spanish. I have also volunteered as a Big with the Big Brothers Big Sisters program for 2 years and worked with children ages 9-12 there once a week. Working with children has always been a passion of mine and I hope to have a few of my own someday. I'm a very enthusiastic person with an energetic heart that kids have no trouble relating to and confiding in. I am able to help kids with their homework, love playing music with them, having fun outside, and learning about their interests. With that being said, I am also very good at developing boundaries with kids so that they both love AND respect me as the adult. My passions outside of work include music and makeup. I play violin, piano, guitar, and sing as well as write my own music. I also love creating artwork on my own face as well as others'. I love incorporating creativity into my time with children. I often find it inspiring how colorful their minds can be.
