Nicole V. - Chicago Nanny

Profile of Nicole V.

Part-Time, 8 Years of Experience

Hello! I have been a regular baby sitter since I was 16 years old. I have watched children of all ages, infants, toddlers and pre-teens!! When I was 18, I started a nanny position for the a family in East Lansing, MI. When I started, the children were 10 months and 4 years old. I was their go-to-girl for about four years until I transferred to Western Michigan University. Moving away from the kids was one of the hardest things I have had to do. I had become so attached and loved them so much. I am also one of four kids and come from a big family, so I am a natural caregiver. In early college years, I studied elementary education because I wanted to teach middle school English Literature. I changed my major to communications because I found that the school systems did not allow teachers to utilize their creativity as I had originally hoped. I miss being around little ones and watching them grow into "mini-adults" and would love to find a family that is as outgoing and fun loving as I am. Being a nanny is something I am passionate about, and give my all for. I love being active, cooking or baking and any sort of arts and crafts activity.
Related Hobbies and Interests
I love to bake. Most kids that I have cared for are always up for some chocolate chip cookies. I like to do anything that involves some sort of craft from scrap booking to painting. I think creativity is very important for a child's stimulus growth.
