My name is Crystal. I am 40 years young with lots of time in childcare. I have two grown young men both looking into being in the arts. One loves music and making sounds. The other a graphic arts designer. As high schooler, I took Child Development because I've always loved children. I would say I want ten however, I was only able to have two. I am looking to foster a child and adopt. I was adopted at two weeks old so I learned to love unconditionally at an early age. I love to teach. I took seven years of Spanish in school and I'm refreshing as I continue to teach. I'm also learning sign language. I have numerous clock hours and CPR training from my current and previous jobs. My goal is to open my own center and retire watching all my babies grow in productive and respectful individuals. I AM VERY COVID CAUTIOUS! My son is diabetic and lives at home.

Hi! My name is Maeve Heumann and I am 22 yr old recent college graduate living in Edwardsville, IL. I've always loved kids so much and been drawn to their energy and imaginative nature. For 10 years, I've been a regular Babysitter/Nanny for all the local families in my neighborhood, and gone on to be a regular Nanny for families with infant children and energetic toddlers.

I’m the eldest of the children in my family, so I discovered my natural caregiving nature at a young age. I have been a caregiver of people ages 3 through 93! The elderly are such treasure troves of wisdom and history, and the children are good for my soul; they amuse me, surprise me and fascinate me. I like watching them grow, I like teaching them and getting the satisfaction that I have helped a young one learn learn. Currently I am caring for sisters—a three-year-old, and one who turned six years old last month. I most like to play and interact with them in way in which they learn. For example, the girls’ first language is English, and I am teaching them to speak Spanish. Of course, what I’m able to teach them depends on age and what a parent wants in that regard. I’m willing to do light housekeeping, and I am also an experienced house sitter and pet sitter. I’m extremely flexible, I have references, and I’m looking forward to having an opportunity to get acquainted with some parents to see if our needs mesh!
