Hi! I’m Jane!

I have been an early childhood educator for the last 8 years, and have worked with children for the last 15. I love watching children flourish and seeing their imagination take off! I love where I am now, but definitely want to add more caregiving/babysitting positions into my routine.

A little bit about me

Hello families! My name is Izabella Morales, I have been working in the childcare field in California for 6 years and I am looking for a full-time nanny position now that I have made the move to Chicago! My mom was born and raised here so it already feels like home to me and I’m very excited to be here 😊

Working in a preschool in California, I became used to being alone with 12-18 children at any given time. I am very open to working with families that have multiple children or are looking for a nanny for a nanny share situation. I am not comfortable driving in the city at this time but I am comfortable walking and using public transportation.

A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Helena Miller. I've worked at a preschool (Oak Park Friends School) for five years now. I started working with children in a school setting in 2018. My love for children has led me to work with kids of all ages and opened my eyes to a whole new (dazzling) world. I have experience working as an assistant as well as a lead teacher. I have also been a nanny for almost 2 years during covid and babysit occasionally. In addition to teaching, I have my associates in graphic design and love art and creativity. As a result of my interest in art, I have come up with activities that are fun and engaging for kids.
