This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 5 yrs
I have 5 years of combined experience as a lead kindergarten teacher at Chicago Public Schools, a special education teacher assistant in Park Ridge, as well as a PT nanny. I'm very anti-screen time and very pro hands-on learning. I love to keep children active and busy by exploring parks, going to zoos, museums, libraries and on nature walks. I also love engaging kids by reading, playing games, imaginative play, arts and crafts, as well as occasionally doing some fun age-appropriate science experiments! Please message me if you would like to schedule a meet & greet either by phone or virtual visit. Thank you!

We love Katie! We’ve been using her for the past month, for afternoon care for our 4.5yr old son. She’s really great at getting him to go outside (when the weather cooperates) and to engage in non-screen time activities. She also knows how to handle behavioral issues that come up without any direction from us. She’s been very accommodating as our schedule has been in flux, and she’s very prompt at messaging us back. She’s also awesome with our dog, who can sometimes be challenging.
