Meet Nia

  • Early Childhood Special Education Certification

Hello Families! My name is Nia Columbus and I am a 24 yrs old. By day, I am a infant room lead teacher for babies 6weeks to 12 months. I have an associates in Early Childhood Education and a Bachelors in Child and Youth Studies. Prior to completing my coursework , I serviced two different families as a full time nanny for about a year. The children for each family ranged between 10 months to 9 years old. I look forward to communicating with any families that express interest in childcare. Lastly, its also important that I acknowledge that its not easy trusting someone with your child. However, with great communication and partnership, I believe we can create a nurturing and safe experience <3 Feel free to reach out !
