Hello, my name is Mariah Alvarez. I am thirty one years old. I am a full-time SECA (Special Education Classroom Assistant) working for CPS (Chicago Public Schools). Before I started my CPS career, I worked for several years as a nanny for two amazing families who I still keep in touch with! I have experience with special needs and medical needs. I also have a younger sister (23 years old) who has special needs. Through caring for her is where my love and passion grew with wanting to work in special education. She is my muse and the reason why I chose working in Special Education. I have experience with all age groups! I like to dedicate my time to being of service to children/people who need help. I like to teach independence as much as possible, all while guiding and making learning fun. I love to plan play dates! Anything that involves being outside and going around the beautiful city that we live in, is a must (weather permitting of course)! I am looking to work full-time for the summer. Please feel free to reach out if you feel like I'd be a good fit to work with your family. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Hello, My name is Migle and I am looking for a full-time nanny position. I have over 13 years of nannying/ babysitting children aged 4 and up and have several references available upon request.

I have many years of experience with children in a wide range of settings, including many years of babysitting for families in their homes, working as a summer camp counselor, as an assistant teacher in a daycare, and volunteering in two elementary schools. I raised my own son and I occasionally watch my 4 and 6 year old grandsons. In the past year and a half I have watched a 2.5 year old boy, an infant girl from age 3 to 6 months, a baby boy from 7 to 10 months, and an 8 year old girl. I completed a pediatric first aid and CPR class in November 2023. When I am watching children I do not use my cell phone (other than in case of emergency or if I need to schedule an appointment) as I want to give the kids my undivided attention. I especially enjoy reading to children, doing art projects together, and taking nature walks. I am very energetic, and on days when I am not babysitting, I typically take 4 - 5 mile walks along the lake. I am very happy to provide professional and personal references. Among the parents from whom I can provide references are a neonatologist, a professor of psychology, a nurse, and an elementary schoolteacher. As a caregiver, I am highly reliable, kind, warm, and fun. I love both kids and dogs. My schedule is typically very flexible, and I can often make myself available for last-minute requests. Thank you. Rosanne
