Hi mommys and daddys! My name is Valerie and I am a stay at home mom of 2 young children. I am currently looking to babysit at my place (near Ogden and River Rd) either on a consistent or as needed basis. My experience includes working at the Joliet Park District day camp (4 and 5 year olds) and previously nannying for 4 girls (ages 7, 6, 5, and 1) along with my one year old son at the time. Lots of experience with special needs children and I love structured play time! We have a very flexible schedule so I can be available for emergencies or spuratic date nights ;) I also don't mind late night hours or overnights, we have an extra bassinet, crib, toddler bed, and twin bed here! I am more set up for younger children and babies here, but my 9 year old step son Read more stays with us during the summers so I also have a lot of games, books, and legos for older children. Everything is kept clean (although there are always toys and books everywhere no matter how hard I try) and we have no pets. I have my own vehicle, and am willing to help with transportation if needed. Pay is very negotiable! Message me if you would like to chat or come over, or maybe meet me and my children at the park. I can provide you with phone numbers or email addresses of my friends and family for references if you'd like :) Thank you!
