I’m from the Chicago Lakeview/Wrigleyville area. I’ve been a childcare worker for my church for four years where I babysat and fed, cleaned, and kept children busy while parents were at church services. I’ve also babysat and they need for the members of my church and my neighbors where I would bathe, feed, change, cook, and clean for 2 years. I have multiple years of experience working with autistic children, children with down syndrome, and nonverbal children. I completed a CNA (nursing assistant) program so I professionally can give care to all age groups. I also have my CPR and BLS certification.
