Imagine having some free time and a sitter who is loves children, helping families, with teaching experience. Someone who understands big emotions, able to work through transitions, providing fun activities who communicates. Someone who will love your child and pets as her own, and someone who can provide resources for whatever you need. That's everything and more that you will get when you hire me as your sitter. I'm a retired preschool teacher seeking families who need weekend care. Interested in families who will communicate, and see me as experienced and ask questions about my profile, while not seeing my age or experience as an in issue. You won't know anything about me unless you ask! Chicago families: I'm in town for holidays and have some free time while in town that I would love to share with you. How can I help your family?
Dani is an experienced, friendly, and unflappable sitter! If you're in Chicago, know that she visits frequently, so don't make my initial mistake and overlook her because her location is listed as Wisconsin. Dani was the first sitter our preschooler met who wasn't a family friend, but any worries we might have had disappeared within 20 minutes of her arrival. She is super friendly, and both extremely knowledgeable and experienced when it comes to toddlers and preschoolers. She let our son warm up to her at his own pace, and asked thoughtful questions around his routine. She is communicative and prompt, and was able to come through for us at the last minute. We will definitely reach out to her again in the future.
