This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 10 yrs
Originally, I was a teacher of English in Ukraine for almost 30 years. In addition to raising my own 2 children, now adults, I started as a nanny with 2 kids (4 months & 2 years) in 2009 here in Chicago, where I now live. Since then, I continuously work as a nanny, full time and part time, having solidified my experience as a nanny with children from a newborn to a 7-year-old, additionally assisting my daughter in raising my 2 grandchildren - boys of 6 and 8 years as of now. To briefly describe myself, I am kind, gentle, loving as well as responsible, industrious and reliable. I always follow parents' requirements & suggested neighborhood parks & playgrounds, eager to encourage playing soccer & other games, riding bikes and scooters etc. As for a regular daily routine, we would also make castles in the sandboxes or on the beach, read books, retell stories, describe, draw and color pictures, listen to music, sing various songs and dance.

Daria has been an incredible nanny for our 17-month-old son. She joined us when our son was only 4 months old, and she has consistently displayed punctuality, professionalism, open communication, and she’s so loving towards our son. Our decision to hire her has been one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. Her wealth of knowledge has provided so much comfort, especially as a first-time mother. She consistently ensured our son's engagement by taking him to various activities like music classes, the park, library, Lincoln Park Zoo, and plenty of playtime, reading, and singing at home. Daria was very focused on his safety as well as his learning and development. I always had complete confidence that my son was not only in good hands but also cared for and safe. Daria has become so much more than a nanny for us, we consider her part of the family now and always.
