Experience: 18 yrs
For almost two decades, I've dedicated my career to nurturing young minds and supporting families. My motivation stems from a deep desire to positively impact children's lives by providing reliable care. I am patient, calm, creative, friendly, and approachable. I have experience with special needs children. I communicate with parents through written daily reports, regular updates via text or phone call, and by following their preferred communication method. I follow the parents' lead when enforcing household rules. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, puzzles, and educational games with children. I hold current First Aid Training and CPR Training. I am comfortable caring for two children. I believe in creating a safe and stimulating environment where your little ones can thrive. I hope to bring my experience and passion for childcare to your family. I went to dupage college for 2 years for child development. I have clients that would provide references I
Sandy was great for our 2 year old boy. We pulled him out of daycare as his communication skills were deteriorating. Just a week of having Sandy watch him and his verbal communication noticeably improved. He continues to improve, even as he goes part time to day care.
