My name is Susana, I am 29 years old, and I am originally from Spain. I recently moved to Chicago because my husband is a researcher at the University of Chicago. I have obtained my work permit and am excited to begin this new professional stage in the United States. I have several years of experience working with children, both as a nanny and as a teacher. I have cared for my two nieces and one nephew from infancy until they started school at age three, being responsible for their daily routines, meals, playtime, and overall well-being in a safe and nurturing environment. After they began school, I continued caring for them on weekends and school holidays. In addition, I worked as a nanny for two different families: one family with three children for four consecutive summers, and another family with one child for one summer. In these roles, I supervised daily activities, prepared meals, organized creative and educational play, and ensured a structured and positive environment. Furthermore, I worked as a science teacher at a secondary school for three years. This experience strengthened my communication skills, organization, leadership, and ability to support children’s academic and personal development. I have an intermediate level of English and am highly motivated to continue improving through daily interaction and professional experience. In my free time, I enjoy painting, exercising, and going to the cinema. I am patient, responsible, and genuinely passionate about working with children, always striving to create a safe, supportive, and engaging environment for them. I'm happy to work with cat and dog families as well.

Hello! My name is Ashley, and I live in Lakeview! I work as an elementary school paraprofessional/teacher’s aid, and I have 5+ years of child care under my belt as well as experience caregiving for children and adults with a range of disabilities. I am originally from the metro-Detroit area, and hold a BFA degree in acting. When working in childcare, I often use my performing arts background to create enriching and exciting activities for the kids! I am energetic and fun, and will make sure your children are well cared for while also reinforcing your family routine and daily expectations. Building off of my performing arts background, my teaching experience has given me the knowledge necessary to provide structure and set clear expectations. I would love to talk with you more and get to know your family!

Hello! My name is Katie, and I’ve been a professional caregiver since 2016. I have extensive experience caring for children from newborns to 13 years old, and I truly love helping kids learn, grow, and have fun in a safe, nurturing environment. I’m comfortable managing groups of all sizes—the largest number of children I’ve supervised alone is six, but I also served as Co-Director of a Child Outreach Program that supported 60–80 kids at a time. These experiences have strengthened my skills in organization, communication, and flexibility while keeping things calm and upbeat. I also have overnight experience through Maryville Crisis Nursery, and am trained in sleep training and crisis response including CPR and First-Aid as well as ServeSafe (food prep). In addition to childcare, I also have experience providing pet care and senior care. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or administering medications for pets, or offering compassionate companionship and daily assistance for seniors, I approach every role with patience, reliability, and respect. Families and clients describe me as dependable, caring, and adaptable. I take pride in creating an environment—whether for children, pets, or older adults—where everyone feels comfortable and cared for. I truly enjoy helping others and would be thrilled to bring that care and energy to your family.
