A Caring & Dependable Babysitter Who Loves Making Kids Feel Comfortable & Having Fun!
Hi! My name is Hana, and I’m a 17-year-old senior at St. Francis High School. I’m a caring, responsible, and dependable person who genuinely enjoys spending time with children. I love getting to know their personalities, playing games, helping with homework, and creating a fun and comfortable environment for them.
I’m involved in National Honor Society and HOSA, and through NHS I’ve had opportunities to work with younger students and help them with their schoolwork. I’m also someone who is patient, attentive, and easy to communicate with, and I understand how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident in the person caring for their children.
I’m looking for a flexible babysitting or nanny position that I can balance with my senior-year schedule. I would love the opportunity to get to know your family and become someone you can rely on! 😊
I'm looking for Casual/temporary, Part-time employment.
I can travel to neighboring suburbs/towns of Elgin for work.
