Hi! I'm a Chicago Public Schools teacher looking to babysit this summer while school is out. I have over five years of experience working with children, including teaching 1st grade for four years, Kindergarten for one year, and I'll be teaching 3rd grade this upcoming school year. Before becoming a teacher, I also worked in a daycare caring for 1-year-olds, 2-year-olds, and preschoolers.Caring for children has always been something I truly enjoy. I'm patient, dependable, and love creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment where kids can learn, play, and feel comfortable. Whether we're reading books, making crafts, playing games, spending time outside, or working on age-appropriate learning activities, I enjoy keeping children engaged while making sure they feel cared for.As both a teacher and a mom, I understand how important it is to leave your child with someone you can trust. My goal is to give parents peace of mind by providing attentive, reliable care while making sure their little ones have a fun and positive experience. I would love the opportunity to care for your family this summer, and I look forward to meeting you!

I have professional experience working with children ages 5 and younger in a childcare and early learning setting. My role involved planning and implementing developmentally appropriate activities that promoted social, emotional, and cognitive growth. I supported children in developing independence, cooperation, and problem-solving skills through structured play, hands-on learning, and daily routines.In addition to my professional experience, I am a mother of two young daughters, ages 1 and 3. This has enhanced my understanding of early childhood development and strengthened my ability to provide nurturing, patient, and consistent care. Balancing both roles has allowed me to refine my communication, time management, and behavior guidance skills—qualities that contribute to my effectiveness in supporting children and families within a childcare environment. I am a dedicated and compassionate early childhood educator with a strong passion for helping children learn, grow, and reach their full potential. I have experience working with children ages 5 and older, as well as hands-on experience caring for my two young daughters, ages 1 and 3. These experiences have strengthened my understanding of child development, patience, and the importance of creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment.
