Meet Tammy

  • Speaks English
  • Comfortable with pets

Hi! My name is Tammy and I just graduated from Loyola University Chicago. I am CPR, AED, and first aid trained. I have been babysitting since I was 12 years old for both family members and people in my hometown. I've babysat for families with one child as well as a family with five children so the amount of children is not a problem for me. My most recent experience was babysitting for a family with four children, ages newborn -7 years old. I watched them for the four years I was in college, working part time during the school year and full time in the summer. I have endless patience with children and I am very good at multitasking. I am responsible and reliable when it comes to child care.
