I am passionate about providing a fun and enriching environment for children to learn and grow and most importantly, feel safe. With my international teaching experience in Chicago, Dubai, and Hawaii, I bring a global perspective that values cultural diversity and fosters a sense of open-mindedness. I am dedicated to helping children develop their social, emotional, and cognitive skills while instilling a love for learning. Currently I am back living in my hometown of Chicago working an elementary IB school in Edgewater. Whether it's assisting with homework, engaging in creative play, or organizing educational activities, I am committed to making a positive impact with each family. In addition to being a teacher I am also a children's author and I have published a fictional story with a climate theme and a coloring book to accompany it. If you're looking for a dedicated and experienced international sitter to support your family, Read more I would be delighted to connect with you. In addition to my teaching experience and multicultural sensitivity, I am fluent in English and also speak conversational Spanish.

Maggie was great to work with. She was punctual, responsive, and super calm and easy going. She understood the task/job at hand and was easy to work with! Big thanks to her - she saved us while we were out in Colorado looking for a sitter to watch the kiddos for my brothers wedding!
