About Joan

Experience: 3 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

As a childcare provider with 31 years of experience, I've discovered my passion lies in nurturing children's growth and development. My friendly nature and calm demeanor create a welcoming environment for kids of all ages. I communicate openly with parents, using their preferred method, to ensure we're on the same page about their child's day. I believe in following the parents' lead when it comes to enforcing household rules. My days are filled with engaging activities that promote learning and fun, from outdoor sports to educational games. I'm comfortable caring for up to three children, from infants to preteens, and am happy to assist with tasks like meal preparation, light housekeeping, and carpooling. I'm always seeking opportunities to enrich the lives of the children in my care and am excited about the possibility of working with your family.

Joan helped raise me and my sister as newborn babies until our teenage years. Joan is kind, caring, gentle, and everything you could ever ask for in a caregiver. Whether it was walking us to school, cooking us meals, helping with our homework, or taking us from the Chicago suburbs to downtown on our off-school days to visit the Field Museum, Joan was always there. Joan and I remain close friends to this day in my now adult years (many years after she worked with our family). Joan is family to me and will be an excellent caregiver for your family too!
