I have been babysitting for over 20 years and have watched children ages 3 weeks to 12 years old. I have worked in three different day cares, all in the infant room. I have also babysat for over 250 families. I am certified in CPR, First Aid, and AED, renewed February 2022. I have used this on one occasion to save a life. I have been vaccinated for covid in March and April 2021, and received a covid booster in November 2021. Please rest assured I will get a second covid booster as soon as available! I have also had a flu shot in September 2021, and a tdap in February 2022. I have come to believe that the core of child care is truly loving kids and helping them become the best versions of themselves. I learn something new from each child I have the privilege of babysitting, and most of all, I love getting the opportunity to nurture kids when they are young! I'm also actively involved in the Second City Acting program. I absolutely love engaging children in creative role-play! Finally, I also teach in the Northwestern Program for Gifted Students. I love making learning fun, and it is my dream to open an empowerment institute for kids one day. Please note I do not have after school availability at this time.

I began babysitting for family friends when I was around 15 or 16 years old. During this time, I cared for children of various ages, including a child with special needs who was particularly energetic. This experience taught me patience and adaptability, as well as how to create a supportive and engaging environment for children. Later, I worked at a startup daycare where I cared for children aged 4-5 years old. My responsibilities included: • Preparing healthy snacks • Managing nap times • Organizing playtime and educational activities • Reading stories and engaging in fun activities • Building trust and connections with the children to help them feel comfortable and secure while their parents were away

I have always had a natural connection with children and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. For about two to three years, I cared for my younger cousins, which deepened my passion for working with kids and engaging them in fun, creative, and meaningful activities. In addition to childcare, I take pride in helping others by assisting with household chores and contributing to a clean, organized environment. I find fulfillment in supporting families and making daily life a little easier for those around me.

Vaccinated and boosted. Willing to wear mask in your home if you wish. Mom of two now adult children living on their own. Previous to having my own children, I worked as a live-in sitter/housekeeper while putting myself through college. Happy to cook, clean, play board games, build with blocks, read stories and dance around to music. Can help with homework. I currently work as a freelance writer and seek to supplement my income with part-time or occasional childcare. I do not have a car, but am willing to travel to places accessible by public transit, bike, and a bit of walking. I have a valid driver's license and an extremely safe driving record. I'm willing to transport children with your vehicle. As part of my previous part-time employment with a private school, I have passed several background checks in recent years and participated in CPR/First Aid classes. I love well-behaved dogs and cats as well. I'm young for my age, health-conscious, non-smoker, non-drinker.

I’m CPR and First Aid certified, patient, dependable, and great at multitasking, with strong communication skills to keep parents informed and reassured.
