I have been in childcare for many years and in many different settings, including daycares, private households as a full time nanny, and of course countless date-night/occasional families. I am CPR certified for infants and adults, and am currently in school for education. I love working with children because I enjoy watching their curious nature flourish and having my part in helping them learn and grow. I have experience with all ages, as well as experience with potty training, sleep training, etc. All of my different experience has helped me become the caregiver I am today, and I look forward to growing and learning even more.

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!

My long term goal is to be a preschool teacher, therefore in high school I had the opportunity to observe and participate in a preschool program at South East elementary school. In my experience I assisted the children with their daily routines and responsibilities. Helping foster their independence was one of the best parts of my job. I loved seeing them smile when they accomplished something. My interests include, animals, music, kids,singing dancing, and biking. I'm a very outgoing person, I'm a recent graduate of Sycamore High school and I hope to obtain an opportunity to further my career goals.

I've had a lot of experience working with kids in the past 4 years, not necessarily in paid positions, but for my education as well. I'm skilled at engaging with kids and providing them with a caring person to talk to and have fun with. With a degree in Elementary education, I'm able to provide learning experiences for your children as well and help them get excited to learn. I have experience working as a lifeguard, and know first aid and CPR, so you can be put at ease that your child will be safe with me.

Hi there, I'm Cameron (or Cami—easier for kids to pronounce). A bit about me: -37-years-old, B.S. in psychology from DePaul University -20+ years experience in childcare -Detailed résumé, complete with job and character references -Very family-oriented, prompt, dependable, responsible, respectful, honest, organized, outspoken, creative, patient, and affectionate -Can assist with homework (tutor experience) and light household chores -Dependable and safe SUV and a clean driving record -Experience with ADD/ADHD, dyslexia I'm known for being flexible and being able to stay longer or come earlier with short notice. When with the child(ren), the most important thing is that not only the parents feel secure with my watching their child(ren), but that the child(ren) feel safe, comfortable, and loved, as well. As long as everyone is happy and I have an honest and open relationship with the family I am working for, I'm content.
