My name is Elizabeth Merritt, I have been watching children for the past 12 years. I have excellent references in Deerfield and Highland Park. I have worked with special needs children, infants and toddlers and even helped at children's birthday parties. I have worked at Deerfield Montessori as a school and classroom aide in the Infant classroom (6 mo - 2 years), the Toddler classroom (2 - 3 years) and the 3-6 classroom. I have also worked with the Student Conservation Association leading groups of between 10-25 teen youth. I can cook, clean, drive children to appointments, I also watch and walk pets as added bonus! I love to be active and take children outside for walks and activities. I would much rather play a board game than watch TV with your child! I love children, I love watching them learn and grow and I really enjoy being a part Read more of that experience! I have my First Aide / CPR license. I also received my Girl Scout Silver Award. I hope you will consider allowing me to be part of your family!
