I have worked and volunteered my entire life both with older children and younger ones as well. I used to volunteer at the library helping out with the Summer Reading Challenge in Chicago at one of the libraries and absolutely loved being able to help children learn how to talk about their books and give them advice on new books to read. I also volunteered at two organizations for a refugee children in Columbia taking care of children and helping them learn to read, play with them and help them do their homework while their parents learned English.

Hi! I’m a dedicated and caring sitter with a genuine passion for working with children and supporting their growth and development. I discovered my love for childcare while working at Kids R’ Kids Early Childhood Center, where I cared for children ranging from 2 weeks to 12 years old. That experience helped me build a strong foundation in understanding children’s needs at every stage and reinforced how meaningful it is to create a safe, nurturing environment for them. In addition to my center-based experience, I’ve worked as a nanny for two families, where I managed daily schedules, planned engaging activities to support learning and development, and helped keep children’s spaces clean and organized. I pride myself on being dependable, organized, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. I’m also First Aid trained, Safe Sleep certified, and CPR certified for infants, children, and adults, so families can feel confident knowing their children are in safe hands. I truly love building positive relationships with both kids and parents and being someone families can trust and rely on.
