A little bit about me

My name is Allison aka Ali. I’m 41 years old and reside in Chicago. I have over 12 years of experience as a nanny and babysitter. I enjoy working closely with children and their parents to ensure a fun, safe, and enriched environment. I love being active & busy. Dependent on the child(ren) age going to classes, parks, libraries, imaginative play and going on “adventures” are some of the things I enjoy doing with kids.
Communication is a huge factor, and I ask that of my families as I will give the same to whomever I work with.
I keep a tidy area. Making sure to have any messes we make cleaned up and back in order.

A little bit about me

Hi there! Just a little note about myself. I am a proud mom of 2 beautiful girls, 18 and 11. I live in Beverly and my daughters attend Marist High School and Clissold Elementary. I have loads of experience with newborns and beyond. I have over 8 years experience as a Chicago Fire Department Paramedic as well as over 25 years of newborn/infant experience. My parents were foster parents through my entire life so I grew up holding and caring for newborns/infants at a very young age. I can promise you that your little one will be in great hands as I am a mother myself and understand the feeling of leaving your child with someone new. I have excellent references and I am certified in CPR, ACLS, PALS and as mentioned above I am a Licensed Paramedic through IDPH. I have been in the medical field for over 17 years and I truly look forward to finding the right family to connect with! Hopefully we can chat soon! Thank you so much for your time.
