I am 23 years old, with 10 years of childcare experience. As a teenager I regularly babysat for neighbors and family members with children aged 4 - 12 years. I also have professional experience caring for children aged 0 - 5 years from my time as an assistant and lead daycare teacher from 2020 - 2023. I am currently a nanny during the week for a 3 year old who has a disability, giving me lots of experience working with children with special needs. I’m also studying early childhood education at National Louis University. I can drive kids if needed but I already have a car seat in my car for my nanny job, so I will only have one available back seat for children. I have completed multiple years of first aid and CPR certification in the past for my daycare job, as well as SIDS training, food handlers Read more training, and mandatory reporter training. I am comfortable around all animals, and I have experience taking care of dogs, cats, rodents, and fish if needed.
