About Michael
Experience: 1 yr
I am a certified substitute teacher in Illinois (Riverside Brookfield High School). I have just under 2 years of experience babysitting children ages 3 and under. I would be a great fit for children ages 7 and up, as I can help navigate technology and remote-learning assignments. I have led theatre camps for teenagers at Northern Illinois University over a summer. I am fluent in Spanish and Portuguese. I tutored Brazilians in English when I lived there for a year. I enjoy cooking meals and can easily handle housework. I have a reliable hybrid vehicle. I am working on my CPR certification.

We hired Mike during the middle of the pandemic to help with remote learning for my first grader and watching my 4yo. Mike also took on some housekeeping and pet care responsibilities. He is very patient and creative with the children in helping with the remote learning and extra project either school related or just for fun! He engages them and likes to take them to the park and splash pads. Very comfortable with him driving the kids to and from school/run errands. He is great with the kids they love him and will miss him dearly.
