A little bit about me

I was a nanny and household assistant for many years. I worked for a family for 12 1/2 years, another family for 10 years and took care of twins for 3 1/2 years. I love to experience new milestones and help children meet those. I have experience with up to 8 children. I’ve also had personal assistant positions along with animal care. I have been in animal rescue for the last nine years. I assisted a vet for a year and a half at a rescue. I have great references for both. I have an updated background check through UrbanSitter and Care.com. I still spend the holidays with one family. I am healthy and active. I have an advanced art background and went to college at Columbia. A typical day with a child, would involve art projects with imagination, children’s age appropriate toys, outdoor play, or children’s group activities for socialization. Also, museums and libraries for strong learning experiences. Please reach out and let me know when we can have a conversation. Thanks.

A little bit about me

My name is Rakyra growing up in a large family right here in Chicago, I learned early on that childcare is about much more than just "babysitting." It is about creating a structured, nurturing environment where children feel safe to explore and learn. I am writing to formally express my interest in the Lead Teacher position at Everbrook Academy.
For the past several years, I have acted as the primary caregiver for my younger brother and cousins. While this began as a family responsibility, it developed into a passion for early childhood development. I have managed daily schedules for multiple children of varying ages simultaneously handling everything from meal prep and conflict resolution to educational activities and neighborhood outings to the local parks and playgrounds.
