Meet Akira

Hello, My name is Akira and I am a 25 year old educator. I graduated from Columbia College Chicago with a degree in cultural studies and a minor in early childhood education. I've worked in daycares, in elementary, middle and highschools as well. I also have an extensive background in early childhood education, special education and Autism spectrum disorder. In my free time I like to create art, design clothing and make music with friends. I've been working in childcare for the past 10 years as well. I am cpr certified, certified to teach children and I also have my RBT certification. I love working with children and helping/seeing them grow not just in the field of education but also generally in their views and ideas about life and their interests. I am currently looking for nanny work in the Chicago area because i'd rather help teach and care for Read more children in a closer and more intimate environment during these covid times. I'm also just a generally easy going person but I can be a little particular when it comes to being clean, organized and practicing safety. Feel free to message me any time with any further questions you may have or to set up an interview.
