Find an after school nanny in Harwood Heights, IL

Hi! I'm Savannah and I'm a recent graduate from Northwestern University (with my B.A. in Psychology)! I have always loved working with kids and would love to be a helpful addition for your family! I love chatting and getting to know kids and all they have to share about, in addition to having lots of fun ideas for activities we can try! I'm also very solid in my knowledge of elementary-aged school subjects and could be a helpful tutor to your little ones (I am quite a nerd myself and actually enjoy helping with homework if that sounds useful!). I am into all kinds of hobbies including arts and crafts (especially crochet) and dancing, but always open to learn new things! I've volunteered with toddlers and elementary-aged children in different settings and was also a part-time babysitter for boys who were a bit older (end of middle school) this past year, so I can connect with various age groups. I thoroughly enjoy growing bonds with children of all ages and value the time I can spend acting as a strong role model, while still keeping it fun and safe for everyone! My goal is to really "get in where I fit in" for the family and provide any additional services as needed, whether it be walking the dog or cleaning up the kitchen, so we can discuss however it works best for your current situation. I currently work part-time in a psychology lab at Northwestern, so much of that is pretty flexible timing-wise. If this sounds like a good fit, feel free to reach out and I'm sure we can find a plan that works best. Looking forward to hearing from you!!
