Nicolette S.

With a strong passion for child development and over five years of hands-on experience in childcare, I bring a nurturing, creative, and dependable presence to every family I work with. My journey began as a Community Instructor for the Chicago Park District, where I led engaging activities for children of all ages during summer camps and year-round programs. I spent four years at Hamilton Park Cultural Center, planning arts-based programming and ensuring a safe, fun, and educational environment for every child.

Most recently, I served as an Assistant Guide at Guidepost Montessori in the West Loop, where I supported lead teachers in implementing Montessori methods that encouraged independence, emotional intelligence, and a love for learning in toddlers and young children. My approach is grounded in patience, active listening, and a deep respect for each childs individual personality and growth journey.

In every role, I strive to create a supportive, structured, and joyful atmosphere where children feel safe and inspired. Im also CPR certified and comfortable with light housekeeping, meal prep, and activity planning.

Im excited to bring my passion and experience to a family that values reliability, creativity, and a heart-centered approach to childcare
