A little bit about me

Hello! I am Kaela, a 27 year old college graduate who is studying for my Master’s. I am currently working in the child welfare system as a caseworker but I have plenty of experience as a nanny and former pre-school teacher that reflect my joy for working with children.

I have always enjoyed caring for and teaching children. What started as experience baby sitting for my infant cousins encouraged my passion for shaping youth, and being a resource that creates a safe and happy space for them. I’ve also had experience working with special needs children, children with mental disorders and even adolescents up to the age of 18 in a behavioral rehabilitation setting.

Keeping your children safe, supported, and engaged is my highest priority. I have dependable transportation allowing me to handle school pickups, activities, or errands with caution and ease. I’m excited for the chance to connect and look forward to speaking with you!

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

my experiences as a teacher at the Calvert school and Goddard School in Maryland. I also have experience working with disadvantaged youth at both secure and non-secure detention facilities.

Independent-living skills (depending on age)

The most important part about being a nanny...

means doing my best to nurture them in a way that feels as close as possible to how their parents care for them. It’s taking on the responsibility of watching over them, keeping them safe, caring for their needs, and making sure we have fun together whenever they’re with me.

My experience with special needs children...

has made me a better person. I worked as a behavior technician after interning and I learned so much about neurodivergence but also about myself. It helped me to develop more patience and compassion for children and others, in general.

The most important part about being a nanny...

Is when one of the children I nannied for 3 years surprised me with a gift on Valentine’s Day with a handwritten card saying that I deserve a day filled with love.
