A little bit about me
Hello my name is Mishel :)
I am a kind, patient, charismatic individual who has a true passion for working with children. As I have gained experience over the past 5 years, this has only surmounted! Working a dedicated schedule from temp families to my most current long term position. I have seen it all!
I just recently moved to Chicago and I'm
hoping to find those same opportunities.
I can't wait to see what the nanny scene here has to offer!

A little bit about me
Hi! I am an infant career nanny! I am on the lookout for my next placement in the city with a family with an infant. I'm available to start in early October. I have experience with infants and toddlers beginning at 3 months, as well as nanny shares and sibling care. I am up to date on my CPR/First aid certification, and I have taken courses in beginners ASL and newborn care! I am passionate about early literacy through reading, singing, and talking to your baby about our day. I love to plan developmentally appropriate activities and outings as babies grow and I have experience with forming/joining playgroups with other nannies and caregivers! Light, baby-related housework, meal planning & prep, and baby bedroom/playroom organization are included in my flat rate! I'd love to support your baby and your growing family's needs. Please reach out if you'd like to talk more!

"When we began the search for a nanny we’d hoped to find someone that fit into our lives like family, and then we found Kya! Not only did Kya love our kids, but she provided expert care and guidance that helped take stress off us as parents. She helped with baby led weaning, made sure our infant was meeting all milestones, and always provided fun and engaging activities."

A little bit about me
I'm a student in the Chicago area obtaining my master's in social work. I'm seeking part-time to occasional nanny work as I manage online classes and work at a behavioral services clinic. My background is in psychology at Lake Forest College. I was a preschool teacher at Advocate Condell for a few years before turning to full-time nanny work while taking cooking classes. I was training as baker to become pastry chef, so have plenty of culinary knowledge and meal planning. I decided to get back into psychology with my new internship and hope to find a great family to help in the journey.

"If you're looking for someone who can make a positive, lasting impact on your child’s growth and well-being, Aria is the person you want on your team. She’s a true gem in the world of child care and education, and I would trust her with my child without hesitation!! What makes me trust Aria with handling my child is not only her professionalism and dedication but also the genuine love she has for working with children. She’s not just “doing a job” she is passionate about making a difference in their lives. And that’s the kind of person I want looking after my child. She has consistently demonstrated that she’s capable, responsible, and someone who always has the best interests of the children at heart. Chicago gained a great woman."

I have been taking care of kids for most of my life! Whether it’s babysitting or lifeguarding, I genuinely love caring for little ones and helping them learn new skills. I am qualified to teach swim lessons to children of all ages and enjoy keeping kids active, engaged, and having fun.
I graduated from Loyola University Chicago with my BFA in Visual Communications and worked as a full-time graphic designer for a year before transitioning into freelance work. My background is very hands-on and creative, which translates naturally into fun art projects, learning activities, and imaginative play with children.
I lived in Rome from [phone number hidden] and have made Chicago my home since. I also speak conversational Italian and Spanish. I’m excited to build a consistent, caring relationship with a family and would love to support your children’s growth this year!
