I am currently employed full-time as a federal law enforcement officer & earned both my BS and MA degrees in Criminology/Criminal Justice from Loyola University Chicago. I have 11 years of paid childcare experience and hope to continue occasional date night and weekend babysitting. I am also a first-time mom to a 3 month old boy! I am not available daytime hours during the week and am not looking for a weekly position. I have worked with children from 1 month old to up to 13 years old. I have been a summer nanny, after school nanny, full time nanny, and have tons of date night/occasional babysitting experience. I am super fun, trustworthy, and responsible. I take pride in always being on time and following instructions. I am certified in CPR and First Aid and I do not smoke. Some of my favorite babysitting activities are playing outside, arts and Read more crafts, movie nights, and reading books. I am a pet lover as well. Please contact me with babysitting needs! I look forward to working with your family.

Outstanding. Anna showed up on time, asked all the right questions that make me confident she could handle an active 11 month old, and had a smile on her face through it all. I would book her again!

Anna was a great sitter and we plan to hire her again. She demonstrated great confidence & calm composure when she arrived, even though our daughter was crying, and we were stressed. She put us at ease right away. She clearly has great knowledge and experience with infants, and genuinely provided great care for our daughter for an evening out.

Anna was flexible with a request to arrive early and was here right when she said. She was sweet with our boys and would definitely hire her again.

Anna was prompt, responsible, and kind. She knew how to talk to my middle school age son who is old enough to feel like a big guy but not old enough to watch his brothers at home alone at night. She was also very comfortable and helpful with our dog.

Anna was wonderful. She came early, was very energetic with our 3 year old and 1 year old daughters, took the quick walk through of our house and routine in stride, and took great care of them for the evening while we attended a wedding. She prepared dinner, cleaned up afterward, played with them both outside and inside the house and cleaned up the toys. She also dealt with our one year old waking up before we made it home and got her back to sleep. And she was flexible with us when traffic prevented us from being home when we said we would arrive. My girls loved her and we will definitely book her again!

Anna was great. She showed up early and was very polite. She immediately started interacting with my son. He loved her so much he didn't want her to leave. We will definitely book Anna again for future baby-sitting needs!

Anna was lovely! She made it work with a lot of introduction or orientation because it was a bit of an emergency for us. My 3.5 year old loved her. This was pretty amazing as our daughter has only stayed with my sister or mother in the past. We would definitely book Anna again!

The boys thought she was amazing. They said that she was respectful and read to them from their favorite book series. She played games with them and helped them with their homework. She also checked their homework. She was pleasant and encouraging and most importantly kept them safe, entertained, and arrived on time. We would definitely book her again.
