With 7 years of hands-on childcare experience and as a mom to a wonderful 4-year-old, I bring both professional knowledge and heartfelt understanding to every family I work with. I’m highly creative and artistic, and I love planning age-appropriate games, crafts, and activities that encourage learning, imagination, and confidence. I’ve supported many families with multiple children, so I’m comfortable managing different personalities, routines, and needs with patience and positivity. My personality is quirky, bubbly, and warm, which helps me quickly build strong connections with children while creating a safe, joyful environment. I believe in nurturing trust while setting healthy boundaries in a caring and compassionate way, helping children feel secure, respected, and supported as they grow.

I am an energetic, friendly, and caring nanny. I live in the Hyde Park neighborhood. I am a college graduate (BA in English, minor in Spanish) and I have extensive experience working with children of all ages as a nanny and in Chicago Public Schools (I have worked for CPS as a special education classroom assistant as well as a tutor/mentor and as a substitute teacher). Let's schedule an interview to see if I am a good fit for your family!

My name is Kayla. I’m a Chicago native with a background in hospitality. I began working as a CNA in high school at 16 and have been caring for people of different backgrounds since. I briefly studied children’s developmental sciences at NYU. I’ve worked with geriatric patients, patients with visual and physical impairments, developmental delays such as autism as well as some with memory loss disorders. I have 12 siblings and have cared for my nieces and nephews endlessly over the years. My most recent care has been with my nephew who is autistic, 5 now, who was fed via gtube for the first 2 years of his life. I love working with children and being hands on. I’m outgoing, personable and funny. I’m the life of the party when necessary but I handle my business with utmost care.

I'm a recent graduate from Howard University with a degree in International Affairs and Community Development. My first experience working with children was at Blackstone Bicycle Works, teaching youth 6-13 how to ride a bike, bike mechanic skills, customer service skills, as well as lots of mentoring and tutoring. I've babysat siblings ranging from 4-10 yrs old since I was 16. I recently left my teaching position at Chicago Excel Academy in the Roseland community and wanted to jump back into more personal youth development and care. I love leaving a positive impact on children's lives and being the person to make them smile. I love being able to be apart of making children the best versions of themselves through proper support, love, and activities best for that particular child. I'm an activist and work hard for my community and taking care of/loving children is a huge part of that commitment.
