Hello! My name is Shoni! I am 25 years old, and I graduated from DePaul University with a Master's in Nursing! I am a kind and caring registered nurse in a critical care unit. I mainly take care of adults but have worked with pediatrics as well. I absolutely love working with children! I've babysat a sweet boy since he was 10 weeks old, and he is now 7 years old! We play games together, go out for walks, prepare meals, and have fun! I am very punctual and responsible! I am happy to work with a family who is in need of a babysitter! Please feel free to reach me out! Can't wait to meet you! :)
