Meet Amy

Hi! My name is Amy and I am 24 years old. I grew up in Chicago and currently live in the Lakeview neighborhood. I graduated from Indiana University in 2012 with a degree in social work, and graduated from Tulane University in 2013 with a masters in social work. I currently work a mental health agency in Chicago as a SASS/Crisis Therapist. I have a variety of childcare experience. During high school I worked at the Lifetime Fitness Child Care Center in Skokie, IL with children 3 months-12 years old. When I was in college I worked part time as a teacher assistant in a nursery school. When home for the summer I was a full time nanny for a very energetic and active boy for 2 years. I also have been babysitting for as long as I can remember and continue to babysit on nights/weekends when I can.
