Hi there, My name is Nydia. I'm a transplant from California and attended SFSU to become a teacher. I've worked with Jumpstart in Hunters Point, SF and focused on helping elementary students catch up on their literacy proficiency. I later worked with the YMCA's after school programs. I moved to Chicago in 2011 and worked at Urban Child Academy as an assistant as well as part of the Spanish Immersion program (I am bilingual in Spanish). I began the Day Of The Dead ofrenda there and also helped young minds feel comfortable being in a school setting before they ventured off to kindergarten. Although I am no longer in education, I valued my time in all of the vast settings and learned that each child is different and caring for them is never a one size fits all task. I volunteer at One Tail At a Time and in the past with Alive Rescue. I had the privilege of adopting a sweet street pup I named Walter and had him for 8 years before he passed of old age last September. I hope to be a relief to a family a few days a week and offer my help. I live in Logan Square but do have a car and have lived in Chicago for 15 Winters so I definitely feel comfortable and confident in any neighborhood. I work in hospitality during the evening but with advance notice can also be available for date nights. Thank you for reading my blurb and hope to be of help to a family !

Hi my name is Henrietta and I have a diploma in early childhood in Montessori. I am offering child care and senior care assistance. I love being a baby sitter/nanny because I have a strong connection and bond with infants, toddlers and kids. My responsibility are feeding, caring, helping with school assignments, crafts and in or outdoor play with them. I can also help with light housekeeping, cooking and running errands. Pets are not my strongest fields but I can mange depending on the situation

Hi! My name is Sophia, and I've been a resident of Chicago for a year now. I'm 28 years old and currently looking for a part-time or full-time nanny position. I have had experience with babysitting and nannying throughout high school, college, and beyond. I've cared for children of all ages—from infants to kids ages 2–9, and even preteens and teens (10–15 years old). As I don’t currently have a car in the city, I’m primarily seeking an in-home nanny position, ideally caring for an infant during standard work hours. I'm also comfortable with pets and happy to help with housekeeping tasks. I genuinely love cleaning and organizing! Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or would like to set up a call. I’d love to connect!
