A little bit about me
Hi! I am a patient, loving, reliable person with five years of childcare experience. I graduated from Indiana University Bloomington in May 2019, and studied Human Development and Family Studies. I have been babysitting/nannying for families since I was about 12 years old. I have also worked as a Registered Behavioral Technician at an autism clinic implementing Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA) on children ages 2-9. This position has allowed me to gain experience in implementing individualized treatment plans, working through extreme behaviors, facilitating growth in language, fine motor, and gross motor skills, and providing hands on learning experience based on different environments. I am truly confident in my abilities to provide a safe, reliable, and stimulating childcare experience.

A little bit about me
Fun and energetic young nanny. I love cooking and organizing so housework and meal prep will not be an issue! Very good with all age. I love DIY projects and learning activities for kids, I consider myself to be very creative and like to engage children in fun activities that apply to real life like cooking, baking, educational games. I have a good driving record and my own car if transportation or pick up is needed. I also LOVE animals so if you have a family pet it's no bother at all. Hopefully with me being around it will allow you to alleviate the stress of being a working parent!

A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Sara and I am 25 years old living in Bucktown. I have been a nanny for 5+ years and love this job more than anything. I’ve also been working part-time at a preschool, and have been babysitting for 10+ years for kids of all ages. Working with children is my passion! I am hard working, trustworthy, reliable, creative, energetic, outgoing, responsible, and flexible. I love filling our days with outings such as swimming, art, soccer, etc., walks and outdoor adventures, fun gross/fine motor and sensory activities, and crafts/baking. I have been offered a preschool teacher position when I wrap up my current job that I am leaving because of the commute in June. However, I truly love being one on one with children and value the relationship I create with the family, therefore want to continue nannying. I would love to speak further and get to know each other!
