Hello! My name is Agatha Rutkowski and I am 47 years old. I live in Park Ridge. I raised my own two children who are now 18 and 22 years old. I also worked as a nanny for 15 years. First, I took care of twins from the time they were 3 months old until they were 5 years old. I then worked for another family and when I started, the children were 6 months old and 2 years old and I worked with them until they were 9 and 11 years old. I took care of these children in my own home. I stopped working with both of the families because the children started school full time. After being a nanny, I worked in a home daycare for 4 years. I am CPR certified, and in addition to the experience I have working with children, I have completed classes Read more to expand my knowledge about children and their development. I have completed CDA classes for infants and toddlers; Illinois Food Handler Training; Mandated Reporter Training; Sudden Infant Death Syndrome Training; Shaken Baby Syndrome Training; and Child Development, Health, and Safety Basics Training. These certifications taught me more about how children develop and how I can help them develop. I have also completed classes at a community college. One was about early childhood administration. The other was about the health, safety, and nutrition of young children. This class taught me how to make sure children are safe and healthy. Between all of the classes I have taken, I am prepared to help your child develop in a safe and healthy environment. I am prepared to engage them in activities that are developmentally appropriate. My family and I have been following social distancing guidelines throughout the pandemic and will continue to do so until it is safe.

We interviewed many nannies for our twins...we ended up hiring someone with a tad more recent twin experience but Agata was definitely high on our list of candidates. She is one of the few that tried to interact with our babies right away and was able to soothe one of them that was quite fussy at the time! I know she'll make a great nanny for one of you out there!
