Hi there! I have been babysitting since my early teens and I loved working with kids so much that I became a teacher! I got my elementary license in 2022 and have been in classrooms since then. I’ve tutored the last two years and I love watching my kids grow and learn.
Hello, I'm Lena and I'm a Chicago native!
Fun Fact I love hide and seek, board games, crafts and music. I am so excited to meet your family and my hope in my time with you is to create a lasting impact through care, attention, and fun! Can't wait to meet you!

I’m currently in high school about to graduate in a year, I have experience watching kids like family members or friends, I have 3 pit bull dogs, a turtle and a cat so I do have experience with pets as well
I'm a 19 Graduate. I love children and enjoy helping them learn and grow at every stage My strengths as a babysitter are that I am very responsible, reliable caring, and loving person. I am passionate about furthering my time in the Nanny/babysitting field so that I can continue doing what I love and broadening my experiences. I also have experience in preparing meals for children with dietary restrictions, and I am certified in cooking.
My name is Crystal and I'm looking to gain experience in child and animal care. Why? Well, as I've been exploring new opportunities lately, I've realized that out of all the kids I teach, spaces I take care of, and animals I meet, I hardly get to maintain any personal connection I create with any of them given my age. My live gets incredibly busy, but I still want to be able to make the most out of tasks that don't feel like hard work the whole time; ones that I can have fun in. I have a flexible schedule during summer and other breaks, so what's listed on my profile may be different from how much time I have to do my favorite thing---Help others!
I can travel to neighboring suburbs/towns of Chicago for work.
