A little bit about me
My name is Mikayla; I am 28 years old and currently working in a childcare center in the infant and toddler room. I also have a 5 year old daughter who is my world. I have experience in children of all ages and absolutely love creating a bond with them. When I do child sitting, I usually do crafts and make small treats with the kiddos. I also am very open to sitting for someone who has pets or elderly who need help with day to day tasks.
