About Susan
Experience: 10 yrs
Hi! I was a professor at the Art Institute of Chicago while my kids were growing up and now I work from home during the day. I am looking for evening and weekend work, or covering last minute emergencies or travel. I've been a part-time nanny and babysitter for an amazing family for the last 5 years. They have a full time nanny so I was happy to fill in when needed. When I started, the children were ages 8, 6, 3 and newborn (3 boys, 1 girl). It has been fun watching them grow and follow their interests and activities I meet kids where they are and make sure they are engaged and having fun. I focus on educational activities as well. Additionally, I help with homework, meal prep, light housekeeping and errands. I am happy to drive kids to after school or weekend sports or classes. Thank you for considering me. Looking forward to meeting your family!

Susan is the best! My kids look forward to her coming over - they do crafts, games, dance parties.... She's always on time, very communicative and very responsible. When we unexpectedly lost our nanny she jumped in and didn't miss a beat. We wished she could have been our been our new nanny, but was offered a corporate position we couldn't complete with. We still use her anytime we need a sitter - we'll take her whenever we can ;)
