Meet Olivia

Hello! My name is Olivia Thoelke, and I'm a 27-year-old graduate student at DePaul University pursuing a master's degree in secondary education. I worked in marketing for the past five years and chose to go back to school last year for a career change. I am seeking opportunities to be a nanny, babysitter, or tutor beginning this May through the end of August. When I begin student teaching in September, I will have availability for babysitting and tutoring during nights and weekends. I love kids and spent my high school and undergraduate years as a swimming instructor/coach for kids ages 2-12. I also worked as a lifeguard in high school and college and took courses in CPR/AED and the Red Cross Babysitting Certificate as a teenager. Through my master’s program, I have completed field experience in CPS schools including high school and preschool classrooms. I love to cook and am Read more very open to helping prep meals, completing household chores, and assisting with pet care. I enjoy being active around the city and would be dedicated to helping your kids have a fun, engaging summer! I live with my partner and our two cats in Ravenswood. I’m originally from St. Louis and moved to Chicago five years ago after I graduated from Mizzou. In my free time, I enjoy baking, sewing, traveling, and exploring Chicago. My goal for this summer is to start my first vegetable garden!
