Meet Elizabeth

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

Greetings! My name is Elizabeth Linden. I have been a special education teacher in Wheeling, Illinois for the past 20 years with an LBS1 certification. I am considering a change of careers if you are looking for a full time nanny or just summer babysitting employment with the right family. In regards to recent babysitting experience, I very frequently babysit the cutest little girl named Julie. She is the daughter of my best friend. I also have a grown son of my own, named Maxwell. I love kids, they are just really fun to be around and they keep me young and active. I'm a big kid at heart and I'm not beyond playing peek-a-boo or hide-and-go-seek. As a teacher and a parent, I know kids need structure in order to develop good manners and good health.
