A little bit about me

Hi! I am a nanny with around 7 years of experience working with kids. I've worked in all types of setting from daycare centers to nanny positions to backup care and even school settings. I have worked with all ages as well, from newborns to 14-year-olds. My favorite age is 2-6 because I love helping with early childhood development. I've done so many different levels of care for families with different needs. Some ask for help around the house, some ask for help with homework and some even need help with all aspects of a child's life from doctor appointments to navigating school life. I just moved to Oak Park and I'm excited to find the right job for me!

I was a caretaker for a daycare, a teacher's assistant for a summer program, a backup care provider, then a nanny for the past 4 years.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part is helping to support the kids in areas they need and uplifting a family.

My experience with special needs children...

My experience is limited and by no means am I professionally qualified by a degree or training. However, I have volunteered as someone aiding individuals with special needs in a softball setting in a league for special needs kids. Also at school in the special needs class.

The most important part about being a nanny...

One of my favorite moments as a nanny was helping one of my first kids learn to ride a bike and overcome the fear of falling. It was so fun and rewarding. A very special moment for the whole family.
