A little bit about me

Hi!
My name is Adaeze, and I’m currently attending SIUE for my Master’s in Education. I’ve babysat for several families and worked in different child care settings, so I’m comfortable with kids of all ages. I also have my Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education, and I love keeping kids busy with fun activities, helping with homework, and making sure they feel safe and cared for. I’m available evenings, weekends, and some daytime hours. I’m based in Edwardsville, IL but can travel nearby.
