A little bit about me
Hi I’m Estela Mendoza, a mom of two with over 10 years of childcare experience. I began babysitting more than a decade ago and became a full-time nanny in 2015, caring for twins.I also have 10 years of experience with Chicago Public Schools as a Special Education Classroom Assistant, supporting children with autism, developmental delays, physical disabilities, and other special needs. I’m currently completing my bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education to become a licensed teacher. I believe every child deserves a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where they can learn, grow, and thrive. I am patient, dependable, compassionate, and enjoy partnering with families to support each child’s unique needs and development.I look forward to becoming a trusted, positive part of your family’s journey.
