Meet Taylor

My name is Taylor England. I am 23 years old and I have been working with children since I was 11 years old. I began babysitting with my sister for a family with 4 children (3 months, 1 year old, 2 year old and a 3 year old.) They moved out of state after 3 years with them. I then began to babysit for a family down the street with 2 children age 3 and 5. Family eventually moved in and after 2 years with them they no longer needed extra help. I then babysat for my cousin with a 3 year old little boy, and 2 years later came a little girl, and then 2 years later another little boy. After 7 months with all three children they moved to Berwyn. I currently am enrolled at Triton College to earn my associates degree in Nursing.  I love to be Read more surrounded by children; I honestly feel more comfortable around children than adults. I enjoy having fun with children, but at the same time I enjoy preparing them for their future. I enjoy being creative and having new activities for the children to enjoy. I currently do not have any children of my own. I have worked with children from newborn to age 11.

Taylor received great reviews from her current employer, and we were excited to use her for our babyistting needs. However, the evening that we were going to use her, she had car trouble. We received a text stating "my car won't start" and never heard back from her (that was a couple of weeks ago). It may have been a fluke but a phone call or follow-up would have been appreciated.

Taylor has been amazing with our little girl. She takes her to the park, plays games with her in our home, takes her to play groups and always leaves a detailed note about her day. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a high-quality babysitter! We are sad to see her go.
