Hi--my name is Kelly! Originally from Minnesota, I graduated from Loyola University in 2012 and have been living, working, and exploring in Chicago ever since. I am the second oldest in a family of seven children-with the youngest being eight years old! I am comfortable with handling more than four children as a time as chaos is normal for me and manageable! Since being in Chicago, I have babysat on a regular basis for many families. I have experience with all ages. I've been utilizing Sittercity since I first moved to Chicago, and I have been with a few families for 10+ years. The kids are currently outgrowing their need for a babysitter, which is why I'm back on this site. Some of my favorite activities on my own time include running on LSD, biking to any one of Chicago's many neighborhoods, and spending lots of time outside at the Read more beach taking advantage of Chicago's limited, but beautiful summer weather! When babysitting, you could typically find me entertaining kids with walks to the park, the occasional frozen yogurt treat, lots of {insert sport here}, hide-and-go seek, etc. Indoor activities commonly include puzzles, drawing robots and aliens, reading Dr. Seuss, and fort-building. Feel free to contact me if you feel that I may be a good fit for your family! I'd be happy to meet up to chat and see if would be a good fit for everyone.
