Meet Eleanor: Your Energetic and Compassionate Childcare Professional Bringing Joy and Expertise to Every Child's Day Hello there! I'm Eleanor, a vibrant and caring 28-year-old living in the heart of the city. With a lifelong passion for nurturing children and a wealth of experience under my belt, I'm thrilled to be part of your child's journey. As the eldest of four siblings, caregiving has been ingrained in me from a young age. I've always found immense joy in guiding and supporting younger ones, fostering a sense of wonder and growth in their lives. My journey into professional childcare began as a Montessori teacher, where I had the privilege of working with infants to toddlers aged 6 weeks to 36 months. This experience not only honed my skills in early childhood development but also instilled in me a deep appreciation for the uniqueness of every child. Currently, I'm pursuing my Masters Read more in Counseling Psychology at The Chicago School of Professional Psychology, furthering my understanding of child psychology and development. Alongside my studies, I've been delighting in the role of a part-time nanny, cherishing the opportunity to connect with children on a personal level while providing them with a safe and nurturing environment. I am currently seeking babysitting jobs. I am available select weekdays, most weeknights and weekends. I'm excited to bring my enthusiasm and expertise to your family during these times! Beyond childcare, I lead a fulfilling life filled with various interests and hobbies. You can find me tending to my beloved houseplants, getting lost in captivating podcasts, exploring the city on leisurely walks and indulging my creativity through painting. I share my home in Wicker Park with my roommate and two adorable cats, Squash and Zucchini, who bring endless joy and laughter to my days. I'm eager to connect with you and your little ones, and to embark on this wonderful journey of learning and growth together. Let's create unforgettable memories and meaningful experiences that will shape your child's future!
