Meet Erin

  • Comfortable with pets

I am a graduate of Roosevelt University with my Bachelors in Integrated Marketing Communications. Eleven years ago I started out as a mother’s helper. Since then I have been a babysitter for many families and I have had the opportunity to be a nanny for two of the best little girls. I babysat every Saturday for four years for the same family of four children ranging in age from four months old, to six years old. One of my favorite summers in college was spent as a nanny for two children, 21 months and 4 years old. We did tons of fun things such as, park adventures, going to museums, coloring, princess dance parties, chalking and many other activities. Over the years I have really loved all of my experiences with the many families I've been lucky enough to spend time with. I feel very grateful because I still have relationships with the Read more families I no longer babysit for because the children have outgrown sitters or because I have moved. Having babysat for so many years, for such an range of ages, I feel truly prepared to handle any situation. I really enjoy coloring, playing games, outdoor activities, or any fun activity we can come up with. I don't often turn to the television for entertainment while I am babysitting or in my personal life. I would rather read a book or go out and do something in the real world. I currently work a 9 to 5 in advertising but enjoy babysitting in my free time.
