Hello families. I'm a recently retired educator. I've worked in the Chicago Public School system as well as neighboring suburban school districts for over 20 years specifically with primary students and diverse learners. I'm currently seeking a part time position that would involve but not limited to child care, tutoring (primary level), and light household tasks. I'd welcome the opportunity to speak with you directly to see if we'd be a good fit for one another. I'm compassionate, nurturing, clean, well organized, chatty, dependable and punctual. I hope to hear from you soon. Lisa
Lesa cared for my twin sons for two years. My sons are starting school, and unfortunately we no longer need regular care for them. I am very happy with the amazing work Lesa did with my sons. She always cared for my sons with patience, diligence, kindness, and love. My sons LOVE Lesa, and are always so excited to see her and be with her. Not only do my sons love her, but myself and my whole family do. Her warm heart makes it so easy to make a connection with. Not only is Lesa a kind and caring person, but she is also incredibly hardworking, helpful, and reliable. She is willing to help with house work, and she is a very neat and tidy person. She helped with laundry, changing bed linens, washing dishes, light vacuuming, wiping counters, tidying the house, and preparing meals. She always arrives either early or on time. We would very happily have Lesa work with our sons again, and we highly recommend her to care for your loved one!
