More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
I have previously worked at the Buehler YMCA summer camp and afterschool program for the past five years. I also coached for the Palatine Park District youth cheerleading team for one season. I currently have an internship as a teacher assistant for Lincoln Family Services. Throughout my last two years at the University of Nebraska, I have participated in multiple college-level child development classes with practicums working with an age range of children from 1 year old to 9 years old.
Activities I enjoy doing with children...
When I am babysitting or nannying, I love to plan out a schedule full of different activities and crafts to do with the kids throughout the day. For instance, we could engage in outdoor chalk play, complete a small art project, or engage in tie-dying activities. I also love going for walks or riding bikes with the kids to a local destination like the park, the pool, an ice cream shop, a library, etc. In my experience, kids are much better behaved and have more fun when they're kept busy with a consistent schedule full of games and activities.

Full-Time Nanny Available in Palatine, IL: Sophie K.
Hi!! My name is Sophie Kaegi!
I’ve been babysitting since I was 12 years old (I’m 21 now), and I have experience caring for children ranging from 10 months to 12 years old. When I’m not at school, I have worked as a camp counselor at Metropolis Performing Arts Centre, where I teach kids ages 4–6 how to sing, dance, and act.
Outside of babysitting, I love performing, staying active, and spending time outdoors—especially when the weather is nice! I’m very family- and friend-oriented, and when I’m home, I cherish every moment I get to spend with my loved ones. I’m outgoing, compassionate, and always eager to help. I’m also comfortable with pets and I have a background in dog-sitting (I have a dog and a cat), have my driver’s license (clean record) and a reliable car, and I’m fully vaccinated. I am in the process of renewing my CPR certification!
