A little bit about me

I love kids! I am the oldest of 7, I have 4 sisters and 2 brothers. I’m very empathetic and outgoing. I love to sing and dance. I love reading as much as I love Disney movies! I just recently moved her from Washington but I’m from Arizona so it would be nice to get to know more people!

"A literal angel on earth. I know, it sounds dramatic but it’s exactly what we think of Ariana. She is thoughtful, genuine, intentional, endearing and trustworthy. She exceeded all of our expectations with our darling baby, who absolutely adores her and in return so do we. She’s become a part of our family and have come to trust her so much, we have her travel with us! Ariana also patiently endured our first time parenting anxieties by respecting our boundaries, requests and understanding the reasoning behind our preferences. I truly can’t say enough amazing things about her, words don’t do her justice and recommend her to anyone and everyone looking to have someone take care of their babies!"

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Makaila and I’m a reliable and caring nanny with over 3 years of hands-on childcare experience. I’ve worked with a private family caring for a toddler full-time, where I was responsible for daily routines including meals, naps, playtime, and bedtime. I also helped with light housekeeping related to the child such as tidying play areas, laundry, and preparing snacks and meals. I really enjoy creating a safe, structured, and fun environment where children can learn and grow.

Although my full-time position ended when the family transitioned to remote work, I’ve continued babysitting for families and friends and I’m very comfortable caring for toddlers and young children. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive, and I always aim to support both the child’s needs and the parents’ routines. I’m looking forward to connecting with a new family where I can bring consistency, care, and positive energy into their home.

"Michelle nannied for our family (4yo boy and 8mo girl) for a short, but impactful 6 months. She's professional, caring, honest, and an excellent communicator. We always appreciated her proactiveness. Michelle found appropriate outings for the children such as library story time/music class. She suggested and prepared healthy foods/toys for our infant, while also respecting our wishes. Our older son's manners improved greatly thanks to her direction. Michelle frequently read books and engaged the children in non-screen time activities. The TV was never on when she watched the children. She also helped care for our dog. Michelle's work ethic is exceptional. She established a routine for the children and household - no list or direction required! If there was extra time, she found other ways to contribute to upkeep of the household and help with occasional errands. She was truly a godsend during a chaotic transition phase from 1 to 2 kids."
