My name is Lauren Gross and I recent graduate of Wheaton College in Wheaton, IL. I graduated in December with a degree in Applied Health Science and Psychology. This fall I will attending Rush University's School of Nursing to get my masters as a nurse. I will living in Chicago this summer and would love to nanny for a family during the summer months. Through my undergraduate schooling, I held a number of nannying positions. Currently, I nanny for a first grade boy every day after school for 3 to 4 hours a day. I have worked with children ranging from new borns to middle schoolers, most commonly with elementary aged children. During the summer of 2011, I became CPR/AED certified and also became lifeguard certified through the American Red Cross. These trainings allow me to care for children's physical needs, especially during the summer months if watching them at Read more the pool or lake. I am an active person, who loves to plan fun activities for the kids I nanny to do. I love to be outside and promote creativity and growth.
