About Tami
Experience: 10 yrs
Hi, I am Tami. I work in my Orland Park home. At Lake Childcare Center. My passion is caring for children. Exploration into the world starts with play. I am formerly an Infant Toddler teacher turned Nanny. I have 13 years experience in childcare. I love to see children grow and learn. I am a Nanny/teacher not babysitter. I have lots of energy and tend to sing. TV is for learning or illness only. I believe in giving choices for behavior. I use words to encourage good choices. Ex: Safety first, Put one foot in front of the other, Children play through reading, music, life skills, nature and art & crafts. I keep accurate notes. I take pictures so parents feel they are involved with the children's day. I have pictured 2 loving dog and a cat who hides. Your children will feel safe and loved in my care. First Aid and CPR card specific for infants 9/15/26

We brought our daughter to Tami when she was 3 months old. Tami has helped develop her with tummy time, fine motor skills, self bottle feeding to walking. She is very caring and makes our little one feel safe and loved. Our daughter is very happy to see Tami every morning and always has a big smile on her face and she enjoys playing and learning with the other children under Tami's care. We enjoy seeing the photos that Tami provides us throughout the day along with an update on feeding, napping and changing. Tami is very careful, creative and takes wonderful pictures. She is soft and gentle and playful and very loving.
