Hello! My name is Lauren and I am a graduate student at Northwestern offering child care and household services. I’m currently studying to be come a physician assistant so I have an ever changing but flexible schedule until graduation — and a lot more availability post grad! I grew up babysitting family friends and neighbors starting as a teenager, and I have watched a variety of ages from around 3/4 to 12 years old! My prior responsibilities have included household errands, dropping off/picking up at school, and tutoring. I’m also comfortable cleaning and running any errands if need be. I have no allergies and love animals, so I’m happy to work with families who have pets of any kind!

I love kids, and plan to pursue a career in child protection law. I can make meals, help with homework, and love arts and crafts! I have a car, and am able to drive the kids around locally.

Hi! My name is becca and I am a 23 year incoming first year medical student. I have been babysitting since I was 10, starting with my youngest brother being born, and continued watching toddlers and school aged children throughout high school and college over weekends and summers.

Before starting medical school, I have had jobs as a Certified Nurse Assistant on a cardiology and observation floor, college biology and chemistry tutor, clinical volunteer for senior patients, and participated in clinical research with a focus on pregnancy. Currently I am a medical assistant at a dermatology clinic.

I have been a full time summer nanny for a family with two children under the ages of 6 for the past two years. I have babysit for around 20 families throughout my babysitting career!

Family has always been incredibly important to me. I am one of seven children and therefore grew up in a household managing a lot of different ages, experiences, and emotions. I have nannied and babysat consistently since I was 18. My experience has solidified my desire to continue to help families. Additionally, I have my bachelors degree from Marquette University in accounting and finance. I also am a CPA. I currently work as an auditor at Deloitte. I am comfortable caring for up to four children. I am patient, creative, and friendly, and I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games. I am comfortable enforcing household rules and always follow parents' preferred communication methods regarding their child's day. I am also CPR and First Aid certified. I have a car and am comfortable with pets. More than anything, I look forward to creating a fun and enriching environment for your children.
