Meet Kathleen
- Comfortable with pets
Hi everyone, My name is Kathleen and I just moved to Chicago for an internship in public relations. I am looking for a part-time babysitting opportunity to supplement my income and meet some nice families in the city. I have plenty of childcare experience including years of babysitting for several families, teaching at public schools, and I spent all of last year working in France as an au pair (kind of like a live-in nanny). I am a responsible young professional who truly enjoy spending time with kids of all ages. What sets me apart is my experience and ease building relationships with both children and parents so that everyone is comfortable and has peace of mind. I grew up working on a farm with plenty of animals so pets are no problem for me! My internship is located in the West Loop and is M-F from 9am to 4pm Read more so I would be looking for hours outside of these times, including weekends if needed. I look forward to working with your family :)
