A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Shakayla. I recently graduated from University of Illinois Chicago with a Bachelor of Science degree. Throughout my academic journey, I developed strong problem-solving, communication, and teamwork skills while balancing coursework and other responsibilities.

I have experience working with children through summer programs and as a big sister, which has strengthened my leadership, patience, and ability to connect with people from diverse backgrounds. I also earned a dental assistant certificate, giving me hands-on experience in a professional healthcare setting and helping me build strong organizational and interpersonal skills.

I am passionate about learning, personal growth, and making a positive impact in my community. As I begin the next chapter of my career, I am excited to continue developing professionally, take on new challenges, and contribute meaningfully wherever I work and serve.

I am pretty funny and goofy. I enjoy a good pun, dad joke, or silly graphic t-shirt. Humor is also one of the ways I make connections with children I work with.

I like doing puzzles and reading. I am curious and outgoing. In the last few years I have started going to baseball games and learning about the sport. I also picked up playing video games, and cross stitching. I like to cross stitch projects as gifts and cat themed works. I enjoy going to concerts both with friends and solo. I started collecting puzzles and ornaments from every vacation I have taken in the last 5 years. My favorite ornament and first in the collection is a dinosaur tree topper from London.

I am passionate about my interests and my career. I enjoy sharing my knowledge with others and expanding my understanding of what interests me.

I also have 20 years of childcare experience in various capacities. This includes director, lead teacher and nanny.

Hi, my name is Macy! I am a K-2 special education teacher (autism and emotional disabilities). I have been a nanny for three summers with the same family back in Michigan. I am particularly good at teaching kids to handle large emotions (emotional regulation) and conflict resolution as those are large parts of my job! I have experience with toileting, academic help, cooking, cleaning, and laundry. I have been a nanny to kids aged 4-12, and have babysat kids ranging from infant- 12. I have been babysitting for 8 years! I have been a camp counselor, volleyball coach, nanny, and babysitter. I have lots of experience with kids and feel such joy building relationships with little ones.

I am looking for a part time nannying position this summer from June 8- up until I start teaching the second week of August. I would absolutely be interested in continuing to babysit throughout the school year.
