A little bit about me
Hi, My name is Kamea , I’m 21 years old and I’ve been working with kids since I was about 16 years old. I’ve worked in 2 different daycares with many different age groups from 6 weeks to 6 years old. I truly enjoy working with and caring for children, I love that I get to be apart of their development and not only help and teach them, but also learn from them as well because every kid is different and can teach you something new.

A little bit about me
I am 24 years old, originally from New Orleans, LA and new to Chicago. I graduated from Tulane University in 2023 with degrees in Psychology and Dance and have since worked as a professional dancer, choreographer, and dance educator. I have multiple years of experience teaching, and love getting to introduce young minds to the joy of movement. Additionally, I have worked in childcare as a babysitter, nanny, and aftercare worker at a Montessori School. I am passionate about engaging in imaginative play with children, and love finding new ways to get creative. When I am not working or in the studio I am likely reading, taking a long stroll outside, or searching for a new craft to jump into.
