I have just returned to seattle area after finishing up three years of my masters degree at Oklahoma State University. I have a masters degree in Mental Health Counseling. I currently work in Renton as a Child and Family Therapist. I love hanging out with kids and youth, and doing all sorts of things with them from sports, to crafts, building forts, or just playing a board game and watching a movie! I love laughing with kids and having a good time!

Makaela made a very positive impression with us. She arrived early and was able to chat with the kids and my husband a bit. My daughter thought she was great and "knew what she was doing" with my son (who apparently wasn't listening as well as he should have been). :-) When we got home the kitchen was clean and the leftovers from dinner were put away. So nice! We'll definitely have her back if she'll sit for us again!

Makaela was great with my children. I have a 10 year old girl and 7 year old son. They both had a grat time. She helped them bake muffin and the mess was all cleaned. She gave them dinner and played with them. The kids are looking forward to have her over again. Sangeeta

Makaela is a great babysitter! I've had her babysit my two-year-old twice, so far and she did great. When Makaela was with my son, she fed him dinner and gave him a bath before bedtime. My son has lots of fun with Makaela and there is never any tears. I highly recommend Makaela to babysit.
