Hi there! My name is Anisa, and I have a deep passion for working with children. Growing up in Jamaica and currently being a college student, I've had the joy of interacting with children from diverse backgrounds, enriching my understanding and approach to childcare. I love working with children because of the joy and energy they bring into the world. There's nothing more fulfilling than witnessing a child's curiosity and creativity blossom. I believe in creating a nurturing and stimulating environment where children feel safe and encouraged to explore and learn.

During high school, I volunteered at a nursing home in Jamaica, where I developed essential skills in patience and compassion. Additionally, my academic pursuits have given me valuable insights into child development and effective communication.

Hello Families! I am a professional postpartum doula and newborn care specialist available for daytime care on a part time basis.

As a childcare worker for over a decade I started off working in Windsor Public Schools as a Before/After School Program Leader along with working as a STEM teacher in summer camp. Next I worked in daycares as both a Lead Infant/Toddler Teacher and as Floating Teacher. Most recently I was a Math/Reading Interventionist, giving individualized and small group instruction to children struggling academically. I also have experience with special needs children and providing ABA play-based therapy to children with autism. Although I’ve had many different roles in the early childhood field, the times where I feel most fulfilled are when a family reaches out to me and entrusts me with the responsibility of caring for their children in their home. I am a mother to my 5-year-old son, so I know firsthand the fear that comes along with searching for someone safe and qualified. I love being able to provide peace of mind to other moms like me and I look forward to helping support your family too.

I've had the privilege of working with children who are autistic, allowing me to develop patience, understanding, and a tailored approach to their unique needs. In addition to providing a nurturing environment, I'm equipped to handle practical aspects of childcare. I can prepare meals, keep a clean and organized space, run errands if needed, and assist with homework. I'm committed to creating a positive and enriching experience for the children under my care, while offering peace of mind to parents.
