Hi!!! My name is Michelle Bossy. I am 27 years old and a graduate from Eastern Illinois University. I have my bachelor's degree in Elementary Education. I grew up in Clarendon Hills and now live in Lincoln Park, Chicago. I am currently employed as a First Grade teacher in Darien. I have been teaching for 5 years and have experience teaching kindergarten, 1st and 3rd grade. I am very comfortable and confident in my child care abilities. I have been baby-sitting since I was fifteen and I was a mother's helper before that. I have nannied before for two families. Because I have been around children in a classroom setting, I am very comfortable helping students with school work on a one-on-one and group setting. I am a certified teacher therefore, I have many creative ideas and projects as well as behavior methods. I was a high school and college Read more swimmer. I also have worked as a lifeguard, swim instructor, and swim coach. Therefore, I am very comfortable with watching children in a pool/beach setting. Because of this I know CPR and other important first aide procedures.
