Hi, I’m Elizabeth, I’m an energetic, smart, organized, and outgoing person with a love and passion for childcare. A little family background information on me is I’m the middle child of 9 siblings of all ages and mental abilities. Since I was young I’ve gained experience in assisting children and siblings with ADHD, FAS, and other mental disabilities. I have experience with multiple ages ranging from newborn to middle school; toddler and elementary being my strongest age range of experience. I am also comfortable watching multiple children at a time while completing laundry, cooking, and other household chores. I enjoy reading and exploring the mind creatively through art and writing, playing outdoors whenever possible is always a must, also teaching good people skills and manors is something I see as important. I am CPR certified, I have also completed multiple DCFS certifications. I have years of experience with child care with newborns to teens! If you have any questions please feel free to ask!

I am a dedicated and compassionate caregiver with experience teaching and working closely with children and youth. At Bethel United Methodist Church in Moline, Illinois, I have been leading Bible study sessions and creating engaging, age-appropriate lessons that help children learn in a fun and meaningful way. This experience has strengthened my ability to connect with kids, encourage curiosity, and adapt lessons to different learning styles. Beyond teaching, I have developed strong skills in patience, responsibility, and communication—qualities that naturally carry over into childcare. I understand the importance of creating a safe, nurturing, and structured environment where children can thrive. I also enjoy incorporating creative activities, crafts, and stories to keep children engaged and happy. Families can trust me to be dependable, caring, and attentive to their children’s needs. I am passionate about supporting children’s growth and creating positive experiences that help them feel valued and cared for.

I love playing games with kids and seeing them smile and I also enjoy helping them with homework and watching them learn. I began babysitting when I was 12 years old for family friends. I then worked with after school care to watch kids and help with homework for 2 years. I moved to a program to watch kids with disabilities after school and all summer. I was able to teach them simple skills, play games and give them new opportunities. I have first aide and CPR training as well as early childhood training and more.
