Hello! My name is Linnea and I live in Old Irving Park (NW side of Chicago). I am flexible, communicative, reliable, responsible, and genuinely enjoy spending time with kids! I have 12+ years of experience caring for ages 0-12, with references. I will happily prepare meals/bottles, change diapers, help with homework, plan learning or fun activities, follow routines, clean, provide transportation, or whatever is needed. I drive my own vehicle (excellent record), am fully vaccinated, a non-smoker, and First Aid + CPR certified. I am comfortable with sick care, special needs, and pets!
