A little bit about me

Hello!

I’m Mila and I’ve worked in childcare for a collective 7+ years. I’ve worked with children and families at nearly every stage of my life and education; including while I was earning my Master’s degree from The New School. I am well traveled (6 countries and 23 states) and have lived in Mexico for 3 years and South Africa for 1 year. I am a voice actor. I have experience working with families with 1-2 children between the ages of 5 months-10 years old. I have been an elementary school teacher for grades 1-4 and a middle school Track & Field Coach for grades 5-8. I also work with an educational consulting business and curriculum project that holds interactive workshops and field days for children and families. My approach to childcare is rooted in my belief that mutual respect, curious play and empathy modeling not only offer social emotional learning opportunities with children but also inspires a community mindset and personal conviction when goal setting.

A little bit about me

I am a caring, responsible, and trustworthy nanny with experience caring for children from infants to teenagers. I am currently an au pair in the United States, which has helped me develop strong childcare skills and adapt to working with families in a structured environment.

I am looking for a live-in nanny position where I can become part of the family and provide consistent, long-term support. I am patient, organized, and attentive to children’s needs, including routines, meals, school preparation, and engaging activities.

I enjoy creating a safe, loving, and positive environment for children to grow and learn. I am also flexible, hardworking, and always willing to help with light household tasks related to the children.

I am committed, reliable, and interested in a long-term position with a family.

A little bit about me

I bring a highly engaged, thoughtful approach to childcare and genuinely enjoy building strong, lasting relationships with children. I’m naturally warm but also confident in setting clear, consistent boundaries, which I’ve found creates a sense of security and trust. I’m very intentional about how I show up with kids — asking questions, encouraging curiosity, and tailoring my approach to each child’s personality and needs. I’m especially comfortable supporting children with ADHD and understand the importance of patience, structure, and positive reinforcement. Overall, I’m someone who is dependable, proactive, and fully present when I’m with the children.

A little bit about me

I have been passionate about working with children for about a decade, inspired by my mother who was also a teacher. From a young age, volunteering at her workplace, I knew I wanted to pursue a career in education. I take immense pride in witnessing the developmental milestones of toddlers, whether it's their first time using scissors or managing to calm down with a sip of water. My classroom approach is enriched by my unique skills, including the use of music and sign language, alongside experience gained from working with a speech pathologist. This diverse background equips me with a distinctive perspective in teaching language. Additionally, my commitment to education extends beyond the classroom through extensive volunteer work in special needs settings. My journey has included roles as a Teacher Assistant and various positions as a nanny for private families, where I've nurtured and supported children's growth and learning in a loving and educational environment.
