About Courtney

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello, after more than 20 years of working for a pediatric cancer nonprofit I have decided to change careers. I'm currently in the long process of doing so and am hoping to help out some families along the way. At a young age I helped care for my little brother while he battled cancer. I started babysitting other kids in my neighborhood when I was 11 and continued to do so on and off throughout the years. In high school I had a summer job working with autistic children on educational programs. After college I moved back to Chicago and have been in the Gold Coast since. I have 4 nieces and nephews and friend's kids that I have watched periodically over many years but they are too old for me now! Please let me know if you need a babysitter as I would love to help out families in the area. I'm okay with pets too! Feel free to ask any questions!

I have witnessed Courtney caring for her nieces, nephews and cousins. She is a real hands on caregiver and yet follows the rules given. She is compassionate about children and I would hire her in a moment. Shs is highly responsible and would be wonderful with your children.
