Hello! I hope you're having a wonderful day! I am an experienced caregiver, early childhood music, movement, and drama teaching artist and certified children's yoga instructor from Arizona, currently in search of a part time nanny position. I am a huge advocate of learning though play, and love to use singing, dancing, reading, and dramatic play to promote growth and development, and fun! I have nannied for several families in Chicago, one for two years, and the other for one year. I have babysat for several families with newborn-12-year-old, as well as consistently taking care of their homes and pets during vacations. I worked as a teaching artist for a professional children's theater company in Tempe, Arizona for nine years, teaching creative drama and musical theater. I live in Ravenswood, but am able to travel via CTA to surrounding neighborhoods. I love doing crafts, exploring the city, reading, having dance Read more parties, being silly, and taking little ones to the park!

Jamie sat for our 4 year old and 18 month old boys. She did a fantastic job, and the boys loved her. She was prompt and courteous. She also asked all the right questions, such as confirming no food allergies. We felt very at ease with Jamie and will use her again to watch our boys! We also have an inside dog, a golden retriever, and it was not an issue for her. Thanks Jaime!
