A little bit about me

My name is Itzel Ortega and I have been babysitting for many years. I am an energetic, compassionate, and loving babysitter. I am a 20 year old college student studying Psychology. I usually like to keep the children busy off screens and spending time doing crafts, playing board games, or spending time outside. However, that does not mean I am against letting kids have some screen time! I am great at food preparation as well as doing some house keeping!

A little bit about me

Hello families! My name is Ms. Jordin I am 26 years old. I was born and raised in Chicago,IL. I attended the Illinois Institute of Art to study my passion for fashion. I am currently a preschool teacher at The Gardner School. My childcare experience in both in-home and center-based daycare establishments has given me a broad background in the developmental levels of infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. The energy and sweet innocence of children & looks of amazement I see on young children when they are interacting in my classroom has kept me working in childcare for the past 5 years. I am very passionate about early education and I believe children learn best through play, exploration, and repetition. Due to my skills in engaging children, creating fun activities, and building relationships with parents I would be a perfect fit for your team. Based on my experience I am confident that my skills will benefit your family immensely.

Hello and welcome! My name is Andrea, and I am a clinical psychologist specializing in child and adolescent mental health. With extensive experience working with children, I am passionate about helping young people navigate life's challenges and develop the skills they need to thrive.

I have a deep understanding of the unique needs and developmental stages of children and adolescents and have worked with diverse populations to provide individualized care.

In my practice, I utilize evidence-based interventions to address a range of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, and behavioral difficulties.
