Hello families! My name is Lili, and I am a sophomore at the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign. I am currently studying Political Science, on track to becoming a lawyer. Outside of my professional aspirations, childcare has been a passion of mine for years!I have been caring for family members from the age of 13 in an informal capacity. More formally, I have been babysitting outside of my family for about 4 years. Two of those years were in a summer camp facility where I learned safety precautions, stimulating entertainment, as well as educational implementations. With this combined experience, I hope to offer your little one a fun and appropriate experience!

Hello! I'm 23 years old and currently looking for a new nanny position. I was previously nannying for two boys, ages 10 and 12, but their family no longer needs a nanny since their mom will no longer be working.I have 4 years of professional childcare experience, and I've also been caring for my nephews, cousins, and friends' little ones for as long as I can remember. I'm currently in college majoring in Early Childhood Education, and working with children has always been something I truly love and enjoy.I'm happy to help with transportation, cooking/meal prep, light housekeeping, and any additional tasks your family may need. With my experience, patience, and dedication, I strive to provide a safe, caring, and supportive environment where children feel comfortable and valued.I would love the opportunity to support a family and become a reliable part of their children's lives!
