I have extensive experience caring for newborn/infants and toddlers. I also have experience with twins. I find the developmental process of new life to be truly amazing. I enjoy the role of nurturing care-giver, encouraging the little ones I care for to learn independence, crawl, walk and talk. Toddlers with all their questions and desire to be creative is inspiring. Art is an amazing mode of communication, especially for young children who may not have the vocabulary to express themselves. I encourage art as an educational tool with the children I care for. I live in Ukrainian Village near Chicago/Damen and have my own transportation.

Shauna is a natural! She has sat for us twice now. On the first visit she was a mother's helper. Shauna lit up when my then 4 week old daughter came into the room and immediately jumped in to help me. We gave her a bath and it was clear Shauna is very comfortable around young children - even squirming wet ones. By the second visit I felt completely comfortable leaving my little one in her care and Shauna did not disappoint. She wrote down all the feedings and sleep hours as we asked and was sweetly rocking her when we returned home. We will definitely be using her again.
