Hi! I’m Michaela, I’m 23 years old and have spent the past 7–8 years working with children in a variety of settings, including classrooms and private homes. I’ve cared for children ranging from 3 months to 12 years old, and have experience as both a nanny and early childhood educator. I hold certifications in CPR, First Aid, SIDS, Shaken Baby Syndrome, water safety training, etc. I’ve also completed three years of college coursework in child education, giving me a strong foundation in early childhood development. I love creating fun, enriching environments where children can learn, grow, and explore. Whether it’s going to music class, heading to the pool, or simply playing and learning at home, I enjoy being part of a child’s everyday adventures! I’m passionate about building strong, trusting relationships with both kids and parents, and I look forward to connecting with your family :)
