Hi my name is Mishanda, I have over 28 years of experience caring for newborns to 6-year-olds in licensed child care facilities. I also have 11 years of experience as a nanny caring for multiples and twins. I have experience with caring for children in nanny shares as well. All of my families have become extended family. My daughter and I cared for six children in a nanny share for two years. I held the position as a Program Specialist for South Loop Kindercare Learning Corporation for two years. I believe that children learn best in an environment that is safe, predictable and stimulating. I focus on each child's developmental domains. I am currently looking to join a family with at least a three year commitment. My current family now has school aged children, so I'm looking at a start date late August. I have worked with them for almost six years. Serious inquiries only

I truly cannot speak highly enough of Mishanda and the care she has given my pre-K daughter. She is more than just a childcare provider—she’s a compassionate, nurturing, and skilled professional who genuinely cares about each child’s development. Since being in Mishanda’s care, my daughter has made incredible progress in her speech and communication skills. She’s become more confident in expressing herself, and it’s been amazing to watch her grow. Mishanda also supports important life skills like independence, following routines, and interacting kindly with others—all in a patient and encouraging way. Academically, my daughter is more prepared for kindergarten than I could have imagined. Mishanda incorporates early learning activities that are fun, engaging, and age-appropriate, which has really helped spark a love of learning. If you are a parent looking for someone who will treat your child with the same care, respect, and attention as you would, I wholeheartedly recommend Mishanda. She has made such a positive difference in my daughter’s early development, and I’m so grateful for her presence in our lives.
