We afterschool in the Champaign area!
Even though we are now in Kansas my family on both sides lived in Chicago for over 100+ years. I was born & raised in St. Charles. My husbands family is in Geneva/Elmhurst and I have family in Newark, Cary, Lake in the Hills, and just about every other suburb. :)

we are life-long residents currently afterschooling right off interstate 55. We have easy access to Springfield, Bloomington, Decatur, Peoria, and Champaign.

We are right in the city of Chicago! I enjoy having lots of things to do and all sorts of people to meet. I have three children of my own ages 9, 6, and 4, and up to three other kids in emergency care in my home at any given time. If you take a field trip to Chicago, send me a message and stop by to say hello. We even have free parking to offer in our driveway right down the street from the El!

We love being able to take the el to the museums, parks, zoos, and lake shore!
Both dh and I grew up in the 'burbs, though.

St. Louis native, went to college in Peoria, moved to Chicago about 15 years ago. Thought I was just staying for a 2-year Urban Adventure. But then, I met DH. :)
