Chicago Agencies

JOBS
I am looking for an agency in the Chicago area. I am having a hard time getting agencies to respond to emails and other contacts. Is there an agency that will respond and help me find a job? I am a certified teacher with experience as a live-in governess. I also have experience as a housekeeper, cook, and teacher. A family with a special needs child would be ideal. Any help would be great.

    I live in Chicago. It is SO hard to find a job here. I was considering seeing what's out there, but it's giving me such a headache, I'm just going to stay with my current family.

    I've never had luck getting an agency to respond to me. sittercity may be your best bet.

    There are a LOT of poorly-run agencies here. Check out Alter Ego Concierge. I had such a wonderful experience with them and found the most amazing family.

    Alter Ego usually responds mostly when they have jobs. I have had a wonderful experience with them as well but I got my new position thru Olive you nanny 3 months ago. Try them out.

    Alter Ego posts jobs on facebook I respond to any jobs I have interest in. They don't respond. Chicago nannies was suppose to call. After several voice messages and emails I gave up.

    I like Mahler Private Staffing....based out of Wisconsin, but have Chicago jobs that are really good. I've gotten jobs in Chicago and New York through Mahler.

    I would agree Mahler seems to be a lot better at responding. they don't have any jobs I am interested in at the moment.

    Olive You Nannies
    North Shore Nannies (they're based in the suburbs but place in the city)

    And I agree about Mahler as well!
