Hi! I'm an energetic and caring sitter with a genuine love for working with children. I believe in actively engaging kids through fun, creative, and educational activities that support their development and curiosity. I bring experience both inside and outside of educational settings, and I’m always happy to help with homework, tutoring, or any learning goals your family may have. I also take pride in leaving homes cleaner than I found them and love involving children in simple, age-appropriate tidying routines.

I love being a sitter because spending time with kids always makes my day better! I enjoy watching them grow, learn new things, and just have fun being themselves. I love creating a safe and happy environment where they can laugh, play, and explore. It’s rewarding knowing that families can trust me to care for their little ones like my own. I’ve been working with children for over 4 years, caring for ages from infants up to 12 years old. I’ve worked in daycare centers and with private families, so I’m experienced in all parts of child care—feeding, diapering, nap routines, helping with homework, and more. I can also provide references upon request! I’m certified in CPR and First Aid and have completed Children’s Health and Safety Training and Active Supervision Training. I also hold my Early Childhood Teacher Certification. I’m skilled in meal prep, laundry, diapering, potty training, driving children safely, and running errands. I also love planning fun and educational activities that keep kids engaged and learning while having a great time!

Hi! My name is Makayla, I’m 22 years old, and caring for children has always been something that comes natural to me and loved. In high school, I took childhood development classes that I genuinely enjoyed, and I’ve been babysitting neighborhood kids for as long as I can remember. I loved being the person families could count on, whether it was helping with homework, creating fun activities, or simply making sure their children felt safe and happy. I recently graduated from Paul Mitchell’s esthetics program, and I’m CPR certified. I also have my own car, so transportation is never an issue. Even though I’m an only child, I grew up surrounded by younger cousins who I adored taking care of, which helped build my patience, creativity, and love for kids even more. One of my biggest future goals is to become a great mother one day, and working with children is something that truly fulfills me. I would love the chance to support your family and provide a caring, dependable, and fun environment for your little ones.
