Hi I'm Dinah :) I'm 28 and I've been babysitting children of all ages for over 10 years now. I've also worked at a preschool with children 18 months to 4 years old for two years. I genuinely enjoy being with kids, taking care of them, and making sure they are safe, comfortable and happy I have my degree in human development and am working part-time as a counselor at an eating disorder residential home. I plan on pursuing my masters in social work. I am currently living in Ravenswood. Let me know if I sound like a good fit for your family and feel free to message me with any questions. Thanks!

A little bit about me

I'm eighteen years old and graduated HS earlier this year. I have worked with younger children since I was in middle school and grew up with a cousin who had special needs. I took a few years of Spanish and could definitely pick it up fairly quickly. I also have a car and driver's license, and I am fully vaccinated.

A little bit about me

Hello!

I'm Dani (dah-knee) Kosover Ayala, 22 year-old and recent graduate of Northwestern University. I'm originally from Evanston and have been taking care of children since high school. From 2 month-year old infants to pre-teens, I have helped care for and shape many children as I myself have grown into adulthood. I consider it both a pleasure and a privilege to integrate into a family dynamic and share in the development of children. I hope to find a family to work with in this next chapter of life, to help me ground into a new part of Chicago and grow into relationship over the next season.

Beyond childcare, I am passionate about art-making, ancestral plant knowledge, meditation, and collective healing.
