My strengths are my patience and reliability. I love singing and reading to children. Taking long nature walks is one of my favorite activities to share with children.

Hi! I'm Iggy. I've worked as a babysitter, nanny, after school counselor, and outdoor education instructor. I'm a certified lifeguard, CPR/first-aid trained, and I have my youth mental health first aid certification. I have experience with ages 1-18, and have experience working with children with mental and physical disabilities. I'm new to the Champaign-Urbana area and would love to connect with some local families! My favorite part of working with kids is helping them embrace their creativity and curiosity. I love finding what kiddos love to do and supporting them in it, whether it's building a pillow fort, reading aloud together, or playing outside. I respect the intelligence and independence of the kids I work with, and try to provide gentle, discovery-based guidance when needed. P.S. I used to work at an animal shelter and my house is basically a menagerie at any given time, so pets are a bonus and I'd love to help care for them as well!

Hi! My name is Jessica. I am 37 yrs. I work fulltime (in the evening) as a Data Analyst. I am interested in engaging with children to bring purpose back to my life. I miss so many different aspects of childcare/ teaching. Looking forward to connecting! Be Well, Jessica
