Greetings! My name is Robyn and I grew up on the North Shore of Chicago and currently reside in Highland Park. My primary qualifications as a nanny include experience raising my own family of four children currently 14 to 21 years old; the eldest with Asperger s Syndrome. In addition, I have undertaken nanny positions as a means to earn extra income for the last several years. This comprises a wide range of nanny assignments. I have taken care of infants, toddlers, and teens, including multiples; and have attended to some infants as a night nurse on several occasions. My clients children have ranged from able and normal to those with special needs. I have enjoyed caring for children with both physical and developmental disabilities, the latter including Down s syndrome, Autism, ADHD, ODD, and other learning disabilities and behavioral proclivities. My style as a nanny is flexible for the Read more most part. I like to strike a balance between good fun and discipline for all my clients children. I enjoy time in the park playing sports, long walks, storytelling, and creative playtime. In addition, I can spend time tutoring primary education and am able to supervise timely completion of secondary school home/ coursework as applicable. I consider it a must to possess a strong appreciation for each Parents behavioral and academic expectations for their children, and can assist in setting goals and agreeing reinforcing routines accordingly. I have no issues with attending to light housekeeping and cooking; minding my first priority attending to your children. Pets are a plus I enjoy and if appropriate given childcare needs, I do not have a problem letting dogs out or walking them. I have a clean driving record and lease a modern compact car with all seat belts in place; plenty of room for infant chairs/ restraints as needed. I am also infant to adult CPR certified by the American Medical Association (AMA). I can furnish references upon request. I would be happy to develop further dialog considering your particular requirements and preferences, and can be reached anytime 224-261-0685. All the best, Robyn
