Hi, my name is Kaela! I’m a caring, dependable, and experienced childcare provider with a strong background in nannying, household management, and supporting busy families. I truly enjoy creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children can learn, grow, and feel confident being themselves. I have experience caring for children of different ages, from infants to school-aged kids, and I’m comfortable with daily routines, meals, naps, school drop-offs and pick-ups, age-appropriate activities, light housekeeping, and helping keep the household running smoothly. I value patience, open communication, consistency, and creating a calm but engaging atmosphere for children. My approach is hands-on, thoughtful, and child-centered. I love encouraging creativity, outdoor play, practical life skills, reading, imaginative play, and independence in age-appropriate ways. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident that their children are safe, loved, and well cared for, and I take that responsibility seriously. I would love the opportunity to support a family looking for someone reliable, kind, and attentive to their children’s needs.

I’m a 19-year-old college student with a passion for working with children, including those with special needs. I’m currently pursuing a degree in Early Childhood Development and Education, with plans to transfer to a program to become an Intervention Specialist. During my senior year of high school (2023–2024), I worked with the PAST Foundation, assisting with an after-school STEM program within my school district. At the same time, I served as a lunchroom aide at a local elementary school, helping to supervise and support students during mealtimes. Currently, I work as a classroom aide at Hamilton Preschool in a peer-inclusion setting, supporting both typically developing children and those with special needs. In addition to my formal roles, I also have personal childcare experience babysitting my two nephews, ages 4 months and 2 years, coaching 12u softball and even watching over pets. I thoroughly enjoy working with children of all ages and am dedicated to providing a safe, supportive, and fun environment for every child I care for.
