Hi, my name is Janice and I am offering tutoring, babysitting, housesitting, and/or pet sitting services. I am from Ohio but moved to Chicago 3 years ago. I attended Miami University and received my degree in Early Childhood Education. While I was in school I was completing semester-long placements in a variety of classrooms with students ages raging from infant to 8 years old. I was also working a rotation at a few daycares as a substitute in the summers for 3 years. Since I have graduated in 2020, I have taught third and fourth grade. I just finished my fourth year as a teacher. I love being able to spend time with kids, teaching them while watching them learn and grow each day.

I've worked with infants, toddlers, and school-aged children, providing safe, nurturing, and fun environments where they can thrive. Whether it's engaging in arts and crafts, exploring the outdoors, or reading stories that spark their imaginations, l'm dedicated to making every day a new adventure. I'm also First Aid and CPR certified, ensuring that safety is always my top priority. Above all, I believe in the importance of building strong, trusting relationships with both the children and their families. References available upon request.

I am a grandmother and have watched my two grandchildren in Tennessee for more than 15 years. Recently I have moved to the Chicago area so I could help with my grandchildren here. They are ages 3 and 10. I have also helped out friends and family with their dogs while they are on vacation.
