A little bit about me

Hi - My name is Angel and it’s a pleasure to meet you! I am a musician, yoga instructor, and nanny with 3 1/2 years of experience.

I am an excellent nanny. I believe I am an inquisitive, thoughtful, and fair-minded person. I am pretty active and enjoy exploring. I appreciate reading, music, yoga, and the outdoors. I enjoy perusing gardens, trails, and museums as well. I love to travel, camp, and be creative. My favorite hobby at the moment is cooking new cuisines.

I have a good amount of flexibility in my schedule as I work for myself and am searching for a long-term, full-time position with a family who wants an extra set of hands. I am First Aid and CPR certified and have recently completed my 300-hour yoga teacher training. I also have a clean and safe driving record.

I have also taught children in CPS across Chicago land and have exceptional references as a nanny and a children's yoga teacher.
