HI! My name is Rachel I and I just moved to Los Angeles by way of Chicago. I have over 8 years of childcare experience and I've nannied children of all ages including infants. I also have significant experience working with children with developmental and learning disabilities. I volunteered at The Friendship Circle of West Bloomfield for 5 years where I received training in caring for children with developmental and learning disabilities, mainly autism and ADHD. From 2010-2015 I worked at YMCA Camp Nissokone in Oscoda, Michigan. For two years I was a counselor for girls ages ranging from 8-16, and for three years I was the supervisor of teen leadership programs and, off-camp trips. I received a BA in anthropology and sociology at Kalamazoo College. While living in Kalamazoo I volunteered at Woodward Elementary. I worked in kindergarten and second grade classrooms helping with reading, writing and math. I'm Read more fully vaccinated and take covid safety seriously. I love working with kids and I think nannying is the best job! I'm happy to change diapers, help with homework, or just goof around!
