Greetings All, I am currently a dedicated full-time student on the path to earning my B. A. in Social Work. Over the past seven years, I've embraced the role of caregiver for my three younger siblings while actively contributing to the nurturing environment for my five delightful nephews. My journey has extended to working consistently with various families, including a fulfilling two-year stint in a CPS school where we collaboratively broke barriers and unearthed the untapped potential within every child. Being a part of these formative years in children's lives brings me immense joy. I am passionate about playing a vital role in their growth and development. I firmly believe that every child deserves three fundamental things: the opportunity to smile, learn, and play. I am excited about the prospect of connecting with new families and continuing to contribute positively to the growth and happiness of the children I have the privilege to care for. -Courtney

Courtney is the absolute BEST! We hired her to watch our 1 year old for ~8 months after she came highly recommended and she exceeded our expectations. She is super friendly, well-experienced working with kids of all ages, meets kids where they are by taking different approaches, is flexible, and truly loves her job. Our child absolutely loved her and still FaceTimes her until this day even though it’s been over 6 months since she last worked with us. If we could, we would have worked with Courtney until our child went to grade school! Thank you so much for everything, Courtney!
