Hi! I’m a full-time student at College of Dupage studying computer engineering, and I’m interested in both nannying or babysitting! I’m available weekends all day, weekday afternoons/nights, and some weekday mornings, but I am very flexible with my schedule. I have about 4 years of experience in childcare so far (ages 1–12), including working 40 hour weeks as a camp counselor for the past three summers!

I'm a young and energetic babysitter with a passion for working with children. Although I don't have any professional experience yet, I have a natural talent for connecting with kids. I love engaging them through creative activities like drawing, reading, crafting, music, and games. As an older sister, I understand the responsibility of looking after kids. I have a single mom with three kids who works full-time so I offered the responsibility to be passed down to me. All children deserve love, care, time, and patience but I understand times can get rough; parents need a little help around the house sometimes, that is what I am here for, whether you need a night out or need to pick up some extra shifts. I'm happy to help with homework and household tasks like cooking and chores. I'm comfortable around pets and eager to learn from the families I work with. I will follow whatever instructions I'm given accordingly with care. Of course, your love for your kids is irreplicable but I will do my best to match that love when you need time for you. I can't wait to meet you and your little ones :)
