Hi there! My name is Alvi and I am a fulltime nanny/babysitter in the Chicago area. I went to college for musical theatre so I'm very outgoing and playful and love singing for kiddos! I used to work as a teaching artist with Stages Chicago and enjoy trying musical instruments and dancing with kids as young as 18 months. Currently, I nanny an 11 year old after school and assist in taking them and their 14 year old sister to activities. I keep spaces tidy and prefer no complicated meal-prep.
