About Yashna

Hi! I'm Yashna, and I love kids of all ages! I have 15 years of experience caring for children of all ages from infants to toddlers to early teens. Working with children is truly the greatest, and I find that it helps me to appreciate the beauty in the little things in life. I have a passion for early childhood development and education and love culturing a nurturing environment where little ones can learn and grow! I recently graduated from residency in Pediatrics at Lurie Children's and have a few months of down time before I start my next position, so I would love the opportunity to care for children in our area in the meantime! I am certified in neonatal resuscitation (NRP), pediatric advanced life support (PALS), BLS, and ATLS. I'm happy to jump in as a date night sitter or lend a hand during the day. I have also worked in depth with children with special needs throughout my career and have prior experience as a nanny for three children.
