About Lyd

I'm a responsible, warm and patient sitter with a passion for education and creativity. I work part-time as a substitute teacher for Chicago Public Schools with a flexible schedule, usually finishing around 3:30 p.m. I have my own vehicle and am happy to provide school or activity transport. I enjoy being outdoors whether it's kicking around a soccer ball after school or heading to a nearby park after school, but am also happy doing crafts, reading, playing board games or whatever else you know will keep your child engaged! My childcare background includes a wide range of experiences, from leading a tutoring ages 8-13, providing after school pickup and care to a great 5th grader, babysitting during summer break, or just a couple hours during an evening. I'm happy and comfortable with kids ages 1-15 and can help prepare snacks and/or meals, do basic housework and cleaning, or walking any furry friends you have. In my free time I enjoy writing music, exploring new coffee shops
