I have 1 year of experience as a teachers aid for pre-k through 5th grade and frequently watch and take out my 5 year old nephew for fun activities. I grew up with dogs and get along with them well. I’m patient, kind, and easy going. I’d gladly uphold any parenting guidelines or dietary guidance/restrictions that are preferred. I’m also happy to cook simple/healthy meals. Happy to help with homework when necessary.
Hello! My name is Brooke and I am working towards my masters in Art Therapy. I exclusively babysat two girls at the age of 4 and 6 until they were 12/9 and after that I set off for Georgia to get my bachelors at SCAD. I'm now back in the nwi area and am so excited to be able to see my 2 year old nephew whenever I want. love nature and would take your children outside to play or use my creativity and get into some arts and crafts! Thankyou for considering me and feel free to ask any questions!
I always like kids, I like them to be free to play and learn in a safe environment. I like to help them to grow at their pace but exploring their own potential. I was some years in college in the biology carrer. I'm a mother of two and I'm ready to help.
“Olivia was great with my kids. She's very professional, she was punctual and even tidied up while she was at my home. The thing that stood out the most was how quickly my 2 year old son warmed up to her. It usually takes him a few times to get to comfortable with people, but she was so sweet and kind that he loved her right away! I will continue to hire her for our future babysitting needs.”
As a proud mother of two grown, independent adult children, my nest may be empty, but my heart is still completely full of love for little ones. Having successfully navigated the beautiful, chaotic journey of raising my own kids into adulthood, I find myself deeply missing the pure joy, curiosity, and laughter that only children bring. I am eager to channel that enduring warmth, patience, and experience into providing a safe, fun, and loving environment for your children.
Hello, I have about 25 years of experience taking care of children from birth to 18 years old. Some of the following experiences include, diaper changing, feeding children, sleep routine, food preparation, laundry, car pool, doctor visits, homework/ project assistance, dishes, mopping, sweeping and vacuuming. I also have experience in helping the elderly, feeding, dressing, bathing, medication reminders and assist around with wheelchair/walker. I have more than 15 years of experience with dogs, feeding and cleaning. I received my high school diploma at Richard Daley College in Chicago. My family and I own three dogs, which I successfully potty trained myself! A fun fact, I managed to write and illustrate my own children’s (“Goldfish”) book. Yes, I do have a family of my own, but it has given me so much experience (and still does) that if its ok with you, I would be happy to help in any way that I can.
