Hello my name is Kayla Campbell and I’m 30 years old. I live in Fairview Heights, IL. I have 4 kids who are all in school themselves. I have been working at a daycare the past 2 years. I am cpr certified and have other certifications like shaken baby, Sid’s, and food handlers. I absolutely loved working at the daycare but it has shown me that I really want to care for one family. I care for some of my daycare families on the weekend. It has been such a fun and special bond I’ve been able to create with all the different families. I once worked in the preschool age room and then the infant room. I have learned that I want more time with the sweet kids I get to care for instead of only having them less than a year and then handing them off to the next room. I love the cuddles and being able to teach them. Nothing is more exciting and satisfying than watching each kid hit those mile stones.
