Hi! I’m Tiana, a teacher and longtime lover of working with kids. I am currently a licensed special education teacher and have experience working with children across a variety of ages, personalities, and needs. Working with kids is something I genuinely enjoy, and I love creating an environment where they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. As a teacher, I’m patient, responsible, organized, and used to handling everything from big emotions and busy schedules to homework help and keeping kids entertained. I’m also comfortable working with children who have different learning styles or additional needs. I believe babysitting should be more than simply supervising children, so I enjoy getting to know each child and finding activities that they genuinely enjoy. I’m happy to help with homework, meals, bedtime routines, playtime, crafts, reading, outdoor activities, and whatever else makes your family’s routine a little easier. I’m also comfortable following parents’ routines and expectations because I know every family does things a little differently. Outside of teaching, I recently got married and moved to Chicago with my husband. I love spending time with family and friends, cooking, exploring the city, and being outdoors. I’m a warm, dependable, and easygoing person, but I also understand the importance of structure and boundaries when caring for children. Most importantly, I want parents to feel completely comfortable knowing their children are in good hands. I’ll treat your home and your family with respect and care, and I’ll do my best to make your kids feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away!

Hi! My name is Santana McClendon, and I’m a 20-year-old senior in college pursuing my degree in Early Childhood Education. I have extensive experience working with children of all ages. I began in my early teens working at a daycare every summer, where I cared for children ranging from 5 months to 12 years old. During my time there, I helped teach, engage, supervise, and create a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for every child. After turning 18 and getting my first car, I worked for a transportation company, safely transporting children to and from school, summer camp, and home. This role strengthened my reliability, responsibility, and ability to build positive relationships with both children and families. This past school year, I worked as a Special Education Classroom Assistant (SECA) with Chicago Public Schools, where I supported preschool students ages 4–5 with diverse learning needs while collaborating closely with teachers to create a positive and inclusive classroom environment. In addition to my work with CPS, I have consistently nannied for multiple families. One family had a 13-year-old son and a 7-year-old daughter, while another family has a 9-year-old son. These experiences have strengthened my ability to adapt to each family’s routines while providing dependable, engaging, and compassionate care. I am also CPR certified, giving families added peace of mind that I am prepared to respond in the event of an emergency. One thing I love most about nannying is being able to balance being a fun, energetic caregiver with supporting each child’s learning and development. Whether we’re spending the afternoon at the park, having a dance battle in the living room, doing arts and crafts, reading books, or working on age-appropriate learning activities, I strive to make every day both enjoyable and meaningful. My education in Early Childhood Education and my hands-on experience have given me the knowledge to support children’s social, emotional, academic, and developmental growth while making sure they have fun along the way. Working with children has always been my passion, and I truly enjoy helping them learn, grow, and feel supported. Families describe me as reliable, patient, caring, fun, flexible, and trustworthy. I prioritize creating a safe, engaging, and loving environment where children can thrive. As the new school year approaches, I’m looking for a full-time nannying position, though I am open for part-time! Please reach out!!
