hello my name is Nychelle.I currently reside in Springfield. I'm currently CPR and first aid certified. I do have lots of experience with children. For starters I have two younger siblings of my own, and being an older sister can really set you up for things like this. I've baby sat for numerous people I know with younger, disabled, mentally challenged and babies. I was a regular sitter for year working with a 2&4 year old. I can work with kids of all ages!! I'm fun creative and very patient! I would love the experience of being a nanny, I loved mine growing up. Can provide references if needed.

I’m a 19 year old with plenty of childcare experience. I completed 4 years of a Teaching Class in High school while shadowing a special needs pre-k class & worked in a Preschool for almost a year! I’ve also baby sat on the side since i was 15! I love connecting with the kids & getting to know them personally. I find when teaching children new things it’s always important that they’re taught with their personal needs in mind!

Hi, my name is Kim. I am 36 years old and currently a paraprofessional in a special education classroom in Chatham. I recently had my 5th child (starting over, my other kids are 9,12,14, and 18). I also do personal support work with a young lady with intellectual disabilities part time. I have a drivers licenses and reliable transportation, I am cpr certified, and have background checks run yearly for my job. I can provide many referrals. I am also a full time online student at LLCC and switching to UIS in the fall. I am majoring in special education and am about halfway through my education. I love being outside, doing arts and crafts, and lots of playing. I am hoping to find a new career while I finish school where I am able to provide babysitting or personal care assistance and be able to bring my now 3 month old daughter with me as opposed to putting her in daycare. If I was working with my daughter I would be available for any times. Please let me know if you would be interested in meeting.
