More About Me

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love spontaneous dance parties with children! I love introducing children to a wide variety of music to broaden their tastes early on. Not to mention, it gets our bodies moving! I also enjoy long neighborhood walks and local park explorations. It's important for the youngest of kiddos to be opened up to the world around me under careful supervision.

The most important part about being a nanny...

The most important part about being a nanny is balancing kids' need to explore and their safety. I think of it as being bumper rails for a bowling lane. While children go through life rolling down the bowling lane, good caregivers allow them the room to swerve and dip while giving them the protection from falling into danger zones. This dynamic can lead to thrilling, educational, and positive experiences for the youth's development.

The most important part about being a nanny...

I'll never forget the day I gave a baby I nannied his first strawberry! He took the littlest nibble and scrunched his face in the cutest way. How sour it was to him! I thought he didn't want anymore but he ended up eating two more berries. Strawberries are sour but still sweet and delicious! I loved having the opportunity to give him a new sensory experience that also broadened his flavor palette.

Part-Time Child Care Provider Available in Chicago, IL: Kim N.

Hi there! I’m Kim — a caring, creative, and dependable caregiver with a deep love for children and supporting families. I’ve been a big sister, a foster mom, and a “bonus auntie” to many, and I truly believe in nurturing kids with patience, playfulness, and a sense of safety.

I have experience with children of all ages, including those with special needs. I’m attentive, flexible, and great at meeting kids where they’re at emotionally and developmentally. Whether it’s reading books, doing crafts, helping with homework, or just making snack time a little extra fun — I bring calm, heart, and structure into the home.

I’m happy to help with light tidying, meals, pet care, or anything that supports the rhythm of your family life. I understand how sacred your children are, and I promise to treat them with the same care I would my own.
