A little bit about me

I believe I would make a great sitter for you kids because of my experience working with both toddlers/ infants as well as children ranging from a variety of ages. Within my time working with children I also obtained my CPR and First Aid Certification. I am also currently taking online courses to obtain my daycare specialist certification as well, so I understand how important it is to find someone reliable and trustworthy for your family. I hope to grow , and gain experience through this amazing opportunity. I do have open availability , and can start immediately. I hope if given the opportunity to show you my passion for children..you will not be let down.I would also do any type of training/supervision to gain your trust. I can also produce letters of reference from pervious employers. I hope to hear from you soon , and get started right away! And make a lifetime bond with your family !

A little bit about me

I’ve been a babysitter/nanny since the age of 10. I have been consistent with a few families since living in Chicago, but I have also helped with AWANA programs at churches, Sunday schools, after-school programs, shadowing grade school teachers, and working at summer Bible camps.
I have always found a passion in teaching, but have decided to change my career to photography and graphic design. I still find joy in being a part of a child's beginning stages and childhood, helping parents come alongside their children in their new experiences, playtimes, ups and downs, and celebrations.
