I am a hard worker and very precise with any work I do. I am patient and a very good listener. I always strive for success and I never give up on a task no matter how hard it is. I love kids especially babies! I have 9 siblings not including myself. 2 older than me and 7 younger. I’ve raised and cared for them all since birth and I adore each and every one of them dearly.I’m excellent with kids, and aside from baby sitting within my family, I have years of community babysitting experience. I hope to be your kiddos short or long-term caregiver! See you soon:) --~Zarkayla Mathews

I run a high acuity progressive care unit as a charge nurse with adults. I enjoy my job so much but I am interested in taking care of babies and children and extending my care to them!I have been a nurse for 7 years. While I was in college I was a nanny for a family with three boys. Two of which had special needs. I loved that job so very much, they are all so special to me. I worked with them for three years.I have been married for four years and my husband and I enjoy anything outdoors- hiking, camping, boating. We also have a dog, Lilly, that we bring with us on our adventures.I am excited to see what the future brings, and I hope I can be a good fit for your family’s needs.
