A little bit about me

Hello!
My name is Sharon and I am currently working as a Product Manager at a healthcare company. My work is fully remote. I have weekends free as well.

About my education - in my early years in college I studied early childhood education and worked with children quite a bit. I have also worked at CPS as a 3rd grade student teacher and have worked as a day care teacher as well. Currently, I have assisted close family and friends with babysitting for 2 years now. I enjoy working with kids and look forward to assisting families in need of assistance.

A little bit about me

My name is Maelah and I am a certified speech-language pathologist. I have 5+ years of experience working with children who demonstrate a variety of complex needs. I love to encourage learning through child-led play activities. I am currently waiting on my Illinois speech-language therapy license and am in search of a temporary job for approximately 5-6 months. I come from a large family of six so know first hand how to support a busy household. I am enthusiastic, warm-hearted, and enjoy spending my time outside, playing games, and exploring new restaurants. I am also happy to prepare meals and help with some light house cleaning chores. I love dogs and cats. I look forward to hearing from you and am happy to provide references upon request. Thanks!
