A little bit about me

Hi!

I grew up in a small town in Northwest Indiana. After completing high school I attended Purdue University and graduated with a Bachelors in Hospitality and Tourism Management. I later decided to change my career route, and accepted a position in Sales at AT&T in Dallas at the company headquarters. Once my lease was up, I transferred to Chicago, as I missed the city and midwest weather. Family is very important to me, and I wanted to be closer to my mom. I love working with children, and would like to think I have a way with them just like my mother (who is a second grade elementary teacher.) I worked at a daycare in high school all four years gaining experience with children ages K-12. I then nannied in college for two infant twins and helped them grow up throughout my years at Purdue. I've decided to pursue my Masters Degree in January 2024, and am looking for a part time nanny job while in school. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me, and I hope to speak soon!
