A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Naomi Simpson, and I’m a freshman at Loyola University Chicago with a passion for early childhood education. I’m excited to offer my babysitting services to families looking for reliable, nurturing and bilingual child care.

I’m available every afternoon, with flexibility to start as early as 1:35 PM on weekdays, except for Mondays when I can begin after 4 PM.

My experience includes working at the Williston Northampton Children Center during my senior year of high school. I hold a certificate in the Pyramid Model Framework for ages 0-5, equipping me with effective strategies to support young children’s social and emotional development.

Though I am comfortable and capable of working with children of all ages, my expertise is with 2 to 4-year-olds.

I look forward to the opportunity to contribute to your family and provide exceptional care for your children!
