I'm sure you're very busy so I've outlined my profile in sections: What I do now: I am a teacher at a daycare in Lakeview. My main classroom is the toddler room (ages 15mo-24mo), but I also work in the infant room, the 2s, and the 3+ classroom when needed. I have been in my current role for over 6 months and love it. - I am CPR certified - I love pets - I have a cat - I am not a smoker - I have twin experience - I do not have a car - I do not have special needs experience Background: I have been an on-again-off-again nanny for 10+ years. My most recent nannying job was for a family in Lakeview with 3 amazing kids. I started with them in the summer of 2017; the children were 3, 6, and 7. Before moving to Lakeview, I Read more nannied for families in the suburbs (Wilmette + Deerfield): 12 and 8-year-old sisters, and 11-month-old twins. Between nannying, I worked at a hardware store, a cafe, a beverage distributing company, and an engineering firm. I've always found myself back working with kids because I love it. Education: I have a BA in Applied Behavioral Science. Before switching to my final major, I went to school for 3 years for Elementary Education, I attended Columbia College of Chicago for a year, and community college for 2 years. I truly never wanted to be an elementary school teacher, but I have a lot of teachers in my family who convinced me it would be a good fit; it wasn't. I much prefer the caretaker role to the teaching role when it comes to taking care of children. Please feel free to reach out to me if you're interested in working together, or if you have any questions.
