Hi Parents! My name is Annie. I am currently working for Chicago Public Schools at an elementary school in Lincoln Park, working with students in the special education department. I am looking to continue to help support families while I have the summer off! I graduated with a bachelor's in psychology and I have worked with children for about three years. I am CPR/AED/First Aid certified as well. Working with kids is my passion, and I would love to be helping hand in your family!

My upbringing in a large family of ten children naturally fostered a sense of responsibility and patience within me, as I often assisted my parents with my younger siblings. This caregiving role has been a consistent thread throughout my life. For over a decade, I've volunteered at my church, teaching children between the ages of 3 and 14. I also support mothers during church services by caring for their children, from newborns to ages 4 or 5, allowing them to fully participate in the service or assist in the kitchen. Sometimes, this simply provides mothers without local family support a much-needed break. Additionally, I regularly babysit and help my siblings with their 11 children. Coming from such a large and active family, I am comfortable with noise and thrive in busy environments. Professionally, I spent two fulfilling years as an English as a Second Language teacher at a charter school. Currently, I work as an Administrative Assistant in an office setting, where my responsibilities extend beyond typical administrative duties. I oversee morning drop-offs and dismissals, occasionally substitute teach, troubleshoot technology issues, and assist students with financial aid and high school applications.

I am starting a social work master's in the city in the fall, pivoting from a career in science and health writing, and I am looking for summer nanny jobs and babysitting opportunities beyond summer! I am creative, conscientious, and have over 10 years of childcare experience, including in schools, Christian education, babysitting, and tutoring. I also have several years of special education experience and feel very comfortable around kids with disabilities and/or neurodivergence. I love animals and have a dog of my own and would be happy to support you in running your household (childcare, pet care, light tidying, and whatever else you might need!). My favorite activities to do with kiddos include outdoor education, art projects, and guiding them through simple cooking and baking.
