My name is Crystal. I am 40 years young with lots of time in childcare. I have two grown young men both looking into being in the arts. One loves music and making sounds. The other a graphic arts designer. As high schooler, I took Child Development because I've always loved children. I would say I want ten however, I was only able to have two. I am looking to foster a child and adopt. I was adopted at two weeks old so I learned to love unconditionally at an early age. I love to teach. I took seven years of Spanish in school and I'm refreshing as I continue to teach. I'm also learning sign language. I have numerous clock hours and CPR training from my current and previous jobs. My goal is to open my own center and retire watching all my babies grow in productive and respectful individuals. I AM VERY COVID CAUTIOUS! My son is diabetic and lives at home.

Hello my name is Kayla Campbell and I’m 30 years old. I live in Fairview Heights, IL. I have 4 kids who are all in school themselves. I have been working at a daycare the past 2 years. I am cpr certified and have other certifications like shaken baby, Sid’s, and food handlers. I absolutely loved working at the daycare but it has shown me that I really want to care for one family. I care for some of my daycare families on the weekend. It has been such a fun and special bond I’ve been able to create with all the different families. I once worked in the preschool age room and then the infant room. I have learned that I want more time with the sweet kids I get to care for instead of only having them less than a year and then handing them off to the next room. I love the cuddles and being able to teach them. Nothing is more exciting and satisfying than watching each kid hit those mile stones.

I am a dedicated and responsible childcare professional with a strong background in early childhood education. With valuable experience gained from SIUE Early Childhood Center, daycare settings, and as an experienced nanny ranging from 1 to 11 years old, I possess a deep understanding of child development and a genuine passion for working with children.

Hi I am a behavior technician that works with kids with disabilities, specifically kids with autism. I have experience working in clinics with children teaching them lifestyle skills like potty training, feeding, cleaning, and overall more independence in their daily lives. I would say that I am set apart from others because I have the experience with different ages of children, go to school for development of children, and have worked with children with disabilities.

Hi, I’m Lydia! I’ve always loved being around kids. Growing up in a big family with 18 siblings gave me lots of experience with children of all ages and personalities. Four of my siblings have special needs, and from an early age I helped care for them—whether that meant lending a hand with daily routines, being patient when they needed extra support, or just being a steady friend they could count on. Over the years, I’ve also worked with children on the autism spectrum. In my job with a company that provided support services, I assisted families with potty training, food training, and building language skills. While the company used ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis), I personally don’t agree with every method, and those experiences really shaped the way I see caregiving. They taught me not only how to support growth, but also what not to do—helping me focus on raising confident, happy kids by encouraging their strengths and respecting who they are. By the time I was 12, I was already babysitting without adult supervision, and that taught me responsibility and confidence at a young age. I learned how to keep kids entertained, how to create a safe environment, and most importantly, how to be someone they could trust. When I was 16, I even traveled to England to work as a caregiver for a woman with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). That experience expanded my caregiving skills—I helped with laundry, cooking meals, assisting her in the bathroom, giving her showers, and making sure she was comfortable at night. What I enjoy most about working with kids is knowing that every interaction, no matter how small, shapes the way they see the world. Sometimes it’s through teaching, other times it’s just through listening, laughing, or playing alongside them. To me, caregiving isn’t only about keeping children safe and cared for—it’s about giving them kindness, encouragement, and a sense of joy that will stay with them as they grow.
