I like working with kids because it's incredibly fun; I hardly consider it a job!
I started working with kids as a mother's helper when I was 10 years old, then I progressed from occasional gigs to becoming a summer nanny.
In my spare time, I like to read, play piano, watch movies, and take walks outside.

FAQs for finding a mother's helper
What type of mother’s helpers services can I find near me in Oak Lawn, IL?
In a lot of cases mother’s helpers take on many of the same babysitter duties that a normal babysitter does.

Usually, a mother’s helper is a “babysitter in training” who isn’t old enough to be alone in a home with children, but can help keep an eye on children while parents are nearby while taking some time to themselves.
