Hi my name is Dana Mewes and I am a Learning Behavior Specialist at a high school in Chicago teaching 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th graders. I graduated from the University of Illinois with a Bachelors in Elementary Education and from National Louis University with a Masters in teaching Special Education. In the past, through student teaching, camp jobs, and babysitting, I have worked with infants (starting at 6 months old), toddlers, Kindergarten, elementary, middle school, and high school aged students.

Due to my summer break I am currently very flexible from the third week in June until early August. I am first aid certified and I live in the Portage Park neighborhood of Chicago. I love to be active and be outdoors and I Read more am also willing to work with children with some school work if needed. If you are interested feel free to contact me through sittercity.
