I have been working with children my entire career; nothing brings me more joy than caring for families and helping them with daily routines while staying focused on what is important to them. I have been a school teacher for many years and worked as a part-time childcare provider for families in Evanston for over ten years. I worked for five years before the pandemic, providing childcare and assistance with cleaning, driving, and errands for one family. I found the mix of the care of children and the family home most rewarding. I am an experienced driver and a very active person. I am certified in CPR, a lifeguard, and a WSI-trained swim instructor. I volunteered as a coach for AYSO and taught swimming at the YMCA. I am thrilled at the thought of working with a vibrant new family. I would love to meet with you to discuss my Read more qualifications further. Laurie
