About Lena

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello, Im Lena! I'm a 29-year-old freelance photographer and artist with a background in childcare! I started out sitting for neighbors on my block growing up, and since progressed into many types of childcare to many different types of families. I studied early childhood education and development at Triton College, which led to a Teaching Assistant position at Montessori academy of Chicago in 2017. I am happy to help with meal preparation, bedtime routines, play dates, young children interactive activities and hygiene. I have worked as a date night sitter, and as a full-time nanny, often working with as many as 8 kids at one time. I also have experience helping with many birthday parties and other child friendly events. I am a very nurturing and fun loving individual who was raised as an only child and gravitated to studying childhood development from an early age. I would love the opportunity to assist you with your childcare needs!
