About Serena

Experience: 6 yrs

Hi! My name is Serena, and I have a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Social Work, along with several years of experience working with children and families! I've worked with children of different ages at the Early Childhood Development Center (ECDC) at Notre Dame, in elementary schools, and through KiddieCorp, providing private and group childcare for families of Major League Baseball players (Go Cubbies!). My background in social work has also given me the opportunity to support children and families from all different backgrounds. I'm CPR, First Aid, and AED certified through the American Red Cross. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your little ones, and I strive to create a safe, fun, and welcoming environment. I love getting to know each child's unique personality through crafts, games, and outdoor activities! I'm patient, reliable, and genuinely enjoy working with kids. I'd love to get to know your family and help make your days a little easier!

I genuinely could not recommend Serena more. She started watching our first daughter when she was only 4 months old and she was a true life saver. I was so nervous as a first time mom and I felt comfortable with her immediately. She helped us through nap transitions, teething, and overall just keeping my life together. If we were still in the same city she would still be with us! She’s forever part of our family and you would be so lucky to have her ❤️
