Hi! Iβm ZoΓ« and Iβd love to sit for you or nanny! Iβm a student at the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign but my hometown is Glen Ellyn so Iβm available to help out in either area! I have experience with all age ranges and Iβm well experienced with dietary restrictions and special needs. I can also run errands, do housework, pet care, meal prep, and tutor if you need! I have my own car so I can commute but also provide transportation. I have never been in an accident or gotten a ticket. Lastly, Iβm fully vaccinated and uphold a pretty healthy lifestyle as I am active and do not smoke!

Hi! Iβve been working with kids since I was certified in the babysitting course at 13. Iβm used to babysitting since Iβm the oldest of 3, and have babysat for neighbors, families through lifeguarding, and others Iβve met locally. I am certified in first aid, CPR, AED, and trained in the heimlich maneuver through Red Cross, and have had those renewed twice. I have a pretty open schedule since I just finished my Rad Tech seminar and hope to make some connections sitter-wise since I just recently moved here!
