As a former elementary teacher, a mother of a 16-year-old son and 14-year-old daughter, and most recently a special education classroom assistant for 14-21-year-olds with moderate to severe cognitive and/or physical disabilities. I consider myself genuinely qualified to care for newborns through teenaged children. My current interest is in newborn-18 months old. I’ve raised my children in Lincoln Park (except for a brief stint in Wilmette) and am proud of their independence and mindfulness. I’m reliable and calm in a crisis. I’m a problem solver, resourceful, and fun! I appreciate the rigor of life as a mother and would be pleased to lighten the load.
