A little bit about me

My name is Anabel Arevalo, and I am a rising senior at Dominican University majoring in Elementary Education. I’m currently looking to help families over the summer or possibly longer if needed.

I have 6 years of experience in babysitting and nannying and have worked with children ranging from 3 months old to 11 years old. Currently, I work on an as needed basis with a few families in Chicago and the Chicagoland area, and I have a flexible schedule.

I would love the opportunity to connect with families looking for reliable and caring childcare support. Feel free to reach out with any questions! 😊

A little bit about me

I've spent countless hours hanging out with kids, from infants to pre-teens, and I'm super comfortable with all the basics – feeding, changing diapers, nap routines, and making sure they're safe and sound. I'm also great at coming up with fun activities, whether it's arts and crafts, playing games, or just reading stories. Basically, I'm all about creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment where kids can be themselves and thrive!
