Hi, I’m Elizabeth, I’m an energetic, smart, organized, and outgoing person with a love and passion for childcare. A little family background information on me is I’m the middle child of 9 siblings of all ages and mental abilities. Since I was young I’ve gained experience in assisting children and siblings with ADHD, FAS, and other mental disabilities. I have experience with multiple ages ranging from newborn to middle school; toddler and elementary being my strongest age range of experience. I am also comfortable watching multiple children at a time while completing laundry, cooking, and other household chores. I enjoy reading and exploring the mind creatively through art and writing, playing outdoors whenever possible is always a must, also teaching good people skills and manors is something I see as important. I am CPR certified, I have also completed multiple DCFS certifications. I have years of experience with child care with newborns to teens! If you have any questions please feel free to ask!

I love playing games with kids and seeing them smile and I also enjoy helping them with homework and watching them learn. I began babysitting when I was 12 years old for family friends. I then worked with after school care to watch kids and help with homework for 2 years. I moved to a program to watch kids with disabilities after school and all summer. I was able to teach them simple skills, play games and give them new opportunities. I have first aide and CPR training as well as early childhood training and more.

I’m a 21 year old Stay-at-home-mom to a 2 year old boy. I have many years of child care experience, I am the oldest girl of 8 little and 4 older siblings. My parents were foster parents starting when I was a preteen weather it was a newborn for just a weekend or twin teenagers for 4+ years. Because of that I have experience with all age groups. I provide engaging activities whether it’s outside activities or crafts, creating a safe, creative, loving, and positive environment is very important to me as a mother myself. I am able to help with afterschool pick ups, meals, homework or any assigned drop offs. Outside of childcare I run a small business of handmade items and sensory toys.
