Hi there! For as long as I can remember, working with children has forever been a part of me. Before covid, I was a special needs swim instructor for 4 years and this was the beginning of my journey. Since then, I have been a nanny for 3 families - each had a year contract. I am experienced in infant care as well as special needs, multiples, and twins. I used to be a lifeguard trainer so I have knowledge in cpr and first aid and I am certified. I recently became a person trainer and have proof of CPR certification upon request. I have scored “expert” in early childhood development assessments. Lastly, I am a kid at heart, so I’ll love any opportunity to help a family that I can be a part of :)

I've been a nanny/babysitter since I was 18. I'm now 37 years old and I have a 8 year old son. I've always enjoyed interacting with kids and caring for them. I know how hard it is to leave your children with a stranger so I always to make everyone feel comfortable and be that extra hand they count on. I was in the army reserves for a few years and have also worked in a pediatric dental office as an assistant and receptionist. My now ex husband joined the army and so we had to move around a bit but my son and I moved back to the Mundelein area. My mom was also a nanny and so I grew up going to work with her and found my own passion for helping families and followed in her footsteps. All the families we have worked for have become like family and most we still keep in touch after the kids have grown up. My son has been going to work with me since he was 1.5 years old and he loves it. It's like a playdate for him and the other children. He's very social and well mannered. My most recent work was for a family in Lincolshire who had 2 little girls ages 2.5 and 5 when I started. I was with the from Jan 2023-Aug 2024. Prior to them I was with a family in Texas who have 2 little girls. They were ages 2.5 years old and 5 months old when I started. I worked for a year with them. I have other references from Illinois as well. My son used to go to work with me and I was lucky to find families who were kind enough to allow that. Now he is in school all day so its not longer a neccesity but I still would like to find families who wouldnt mind if i needed to for all the random days off of school, however I know it's not for everyone so I would understand and have care for him. I've cared for all ages from 6 weeks old to 14 years. I've also worked in a daycare in the infant room and toddler room. Helping to care for 12-20 kids at once. I enjoy doing crafts with the kids and going outside. I have my own reliable car and am non smoking. I also enjoy taking care of pets so if you have any that's not a problem. I've dogsat for families as well. I've taken care of up to 4 kids at once alone. I also organize so if you need help with that I would love to. Updated availability!! Currently available part time for as needed care and only short term. I'm currently pregnant and due in October. My son starts school august 20 so I'd be available during school hours and if he can come with I can do afternoons after 3pm.

I worked at LA Fitness in the childcare area for 4 years taking care of sometimes 12 children at any one time. I also have a 7 year old son and a 16 year old daughter. I have experience with all ages and am looking for a way to occupy my time while my kids are at school!
