Hello parents! My name is Melissa & I live in Northbrook, IL. I have over 13 years’ experience working with children of all ages, but I specialize in infants/toddlers. I have worked with special needs kids & kids with health complications. Some of my babysitting responsibilities included: laundry, cleaning, meal prep, grocery shopping, errands, pet care, & homework. Driving to/from school, activities, sports, sleepovers, & school events were some of my other duties. Most recently, I have started dog sitting out of my home as a means of extra income. I have watched up to 5 dogs at a time (my 2 included), and I have 7 years’ experience with pet sitting. I am extremely compassionate, responsible, & trustworthy. Multitasking, planning, and staying organized are skills I have gained/improved upon through my different facets of employment & life experiences. My objective as your babysitter is to make your life as Read more easy as possible, so I would love to meet you and your family!
