Experience: 2 yrs
Hi, my name is Elizabeth and I'm 20 years old. I would see myself as a childcare provider with a passion for nurturing the growth and development of children. With a year of experience, I bring a patient, fun, and friendly approach to caring for children. I ensure open communication with parents through verbal communication, and regular updates. I'm comfortable enforcing household rules and love playing outdoor sports and board games. For a year and a half I have worked with infants and toddlers at a daycare making me equipped to care for children of various age groups, from infants to school age. I would change diapers, feed bottles and meals and formulate sleep schedules. I am always up for an adventure! With my CPR training, I prioritize the safety and well-being of the children in my care. I have a car and am comfortable with pets. I'm happy to assist with cooking, meal preparation, carpooling, light housekeeping, and supervising swimming activities.

Max & Carly Y Libertyville, IL January 7, 2025 To Whom It May Concern, I am delighted to write this letter of recommendation for Elizabeth, who has been our nanny for 6 months. During this period, she has proven to be an exceptional caregiver, and I am confident that she will be an asset to any family or employer fortunate enough to work with her. We unfortunately had to part ways due to our move out of State. One of Elizabeth's most admirable qualities is her punctuality. She consistently arrives on time and is always prepared for the day ahead. This reliability has given us peace of mind and allowed us to maintain a smooth routine, both at home and with our daughter’s schedule. She is highly organized and follows our family's routine with diligence, which is essential for keeping things running efficiently. In addition to being dependable, Elizabeth is very effective in maintaining a clean and tidy household. She takes great care in ensuring the house remains neat, organized, and safe for our daughter. Whether it’s tidying up after meals, organizing play areas, or simply ensuring the environment is pleasant, she does so with a level of attention to detail that exceeds our expectations. Most importantly, Elizabeth has a wonderful rapport with our daughter. She engages with her in a way that is both nurturing and fun. From creative play to educational activities, she always finds new ways to keep our daughter entertained while also fostering her learning and development. It’s clear that Elizabeth genuinely enjoys spending time with our child and takes pride in helping her grow and thrive. Overall, we have been extremely satisfied with Elizabeth's care and support. Her professionalism, caring nature, and strong work ethic make her an outstanding nanny. I wholeheartedly recommend her to any family in need of a dedicated and reliable caregiver. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me if you would like further information. We will miss her dearly! Sincerely, Max & Carly Y
