I am Audrey and I am 26 years old. I have lived in Chicago a little over 2 and a half years. I moved from here from Indiana. I grew up in a very small farm community and wanted to live in the "big windy city" while I was young and single. I love children and pets are not a problem. I live alone and have a cat name Karen. Yes, I know it seems rediculous, but she is my baby ) I currently work downtown at an art school doing administrative work. This is a full time position, but am interested in helping families in my down time and also meeting new faces. I went to Purdue University and graduated in 2008 with a Bachelors degree in Hospitality and Tourism Management. I feel that I can be a huge attribute to your family for the I have experience in babysitting, companionship, and housekeeping from 16 years of age. To earn some extra money during high school I babysat for families of the community as well as family members. The childrens ages ranged from 1-13 years of age. Children are full of energy and keep you on your feet. I also have experience in companionship. I have been volunteering for a company for about a year now. I assist an elderly women with household chores, walking to get groceries, and just sit and talk with her for a few hours at a time. I have honesly have grown to love her as if she were my own grandmother. I have really enjoyed this experience and have learned so much from her. I have also had experience in housekeeping. In high school and college I cleaned a neighbors house for her every other week. She was a doctor, but never had time to clean her house. I would take care of her laundry, water flowers, make beds, clean toilets, water her dog, etc. I enjoyed helping her and she enjoyed helping me. HOBBIES: volleyball, jogging, golf, reading, kayaking, long walks, camping, pretty much anything outdoors, poetry, listening to music, traveling.
