Being a sitter can make you feel a sense of fulfillment by providing care and support while building a positive relationship with the children and their families. It’s a job where you can be creative, active, and make a meaningful impact on young lives. Growing up as the oldest coming from a big family you take on a lot of responsibilities and skills like communication, patience, understanding of child development stances, adaptability, problem solving, safety awareness, the availability to stay calm under pressure, and being able to foster a child’s social, emotional, and intellectual growth through engaging activities.

Hi! I'm Zoe, and I'm from DeKalb, IL. I have babysat since I was 13 and worked with kids professionally starting a few months after I turned 15, and I am 19 now! My first job was at an after-school program, where I supervised an average of 15 children at a time. I was working at the job until I left to move to college here. Last summer, I was a Kindergarten-1st grade camp counselor at my local YMCA, where I had to come up with activities and crafts for the kids to participate in. Now, I am a full-time student in UIUC's Anthropology and History programs, through which I hope to work in Museum Education in my future. A little about me: I LOVE doing fun crafts, including knitting, crocheting, and scrapbooking (Fun fact: I have taught numerous kids how to do those things!).

With nearly a decade of nanny experience, I have dedicated my entire career to providing families and their children with the best childcare. I have cared for children ranging from 3 months to 11 years old, developing a deep understanding of the unique needs at every stage of childhood. What sets me apart is my genuine love for working with children. I love nurturing their young minds, giving them a safe space to explore their curiosity, and watching them grow into confident, caring individuals. In addition to hands- on childcare, I have extensive experience supporting families with household tasks such as children's laundry, light housework to help keep the house tidy, transportation, and meal preparation. If you're seeking an experienced nanny to join your family, I look forward to hearing from you soon!
