Hello! I have over 8 years experience with professional babysitting. I have my Bachelor’s from Northern Illinois University in Family & Child Studies and a Master’s from Erikson Institute in Child Development. I have experience as an early childhood educator, working with children from birth to 7 years. I also have 3 years of administrative experience as an Assistant Director for an early child care center. I currently work as a Developmental Therapist for children under 3 with autism and other developmental delays. I’ve always had a passion for children and watching them grow! I am also very good at connecting with children, as well as the families they belong to. I always make it a priority for children to feel safe and cared for in my presence, even if their caregiver is around. I also make sure families feel secure in leaving their most prized possessions in my care!
