Hi there! Thank you so much for checking out my profile. My name is Lara and I am a student at DePaul University. Having been born and raised in Palatine, IL and now living in Lake View, I am well-versed with the Chicagoland area as well as the Northwest Suburbs. Growing up, I was put in the position of babysitting my many younger cousins from when I turned 13 until I moved to college. Aside from that, I was a well-recognized resource for my community and happy to babysit for any families who needed extra help. I am a highly organized, resourceful, and disciplined young woman who is an active member of my school's film club, a philanthropic local organizer, and a Dean's List student. As a creative, I use my imagination to conspire different ways for the kids to have fun that cater to their specific personalities, from crafts, Read more to baking, to museum adventures, and more. By presenting patience and empathy with the kids I babysit, I ensure a respectful, healthy, and disciplined relationship. Additionally, I am happy to offer any other resources to make your house a place of comfort for the entire family, whether it be laundry, dog walking, dishes, etc. I can't wait to meet you!
