A little bit about me
I’m Ari! I have a little brother I took care of from 1-5 years,I had helped him from choking 3 times and I passed my cpr classes, I never had gotten pulled over or gotten into any crashes as well. I love kids and doing activities with them so it will never be a dull day, filers are no biggie for me and I’d love to cook for them and I’m a big cleaner as well so I will most definitely pick up after myself! Arts and crafts are my thing I will always be down for coloring or building a bird house or taking them into nature for walks. I’m 19 and I’m exited to have kids already haha, I will treat them as my own and make sure they are taken care of.

A little bit about me
Hi, my name is Shannon, and I am 22 years old. I studied for 4 years at NIU in the BFA Acting Program. I am an artist who loves working with kids. I have been babysitting and caring for kids since high school and never stopped. I teach at NIU in the summers as an acting instructor for the Acting Summer camp. This entails staying overnight with the kids and watching them round the clock. I wouldn't change a thing because these kids are so talented, thoughtful, hilarious, and smart. Not only do I teach them, but they, time and time again, teach me how to be bold, courageous, and kind as an artist and as a person.
Not only have I taught and managed around twenty 5th- 9th graders at one time, but I also have experience babysitting multiple children at a time and have experience working with 1-year-olds and toddlers. I hope you find the right fit for your family, and if that's me, that's great!

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!
