About Monica
Experience: 8 yrs
With 8+ years of experience caring for children from newborns to preteens, I offer a nurturing, well-rounded approach to childcare and household support. My background includes teaching kindergarten, art, and math, as well as tutoring grades 3 - 6. I'm passionate about encouraging creativity and supporting each child's unique growth. I'm known for being creative, compassionate, patient, and upbeat; qualities that help me create safe, engaging environments. I'm dependable and committed to meeting your family's needs, whether it's planning enriching activities, preparing healthy meals, or maintaining smooth routines. I can also assist with light housekeeping, organizing, pet care, laundry, and more. With strong communication skills, I aim to build trusting relationships with both kids and parents. I'd love to connect and see how I can help your family thrive. I look forward to speaking with you!

We hired Monica for 1 week to care for our 2 daughters: 5 & 2 years old. We were traveling to the suburbs of Chicago for a family wedding & needed help. We found her on care.com and loved her since the minute we talked to her on the phone. She is communicative, trustworthy, reliable, dependable, caring, loving, disciplined, honest, cand goes above & beyond. She understood the objective and the circumstances. And just ran with it. I am an extremely high standards person and she just blew my mind. She went above & beyond my expectations to prepare for taking care of the kids. She doesn't treat her job as a transaction. She takes interest and does a lot of work outside of her job to make the kids feel happy and cared for. She is reliable with driving kids to a park too. She understood how I like to do it as a parent and did it my way. I appreciate that because every parent has their way of raising their kids. I recommend her to anyone looking to hire for childcare or house manager.
