A little bit about me

Hi there! my name is Kaylee McCall! I am 30 years old with two little ones of my own a boy who will be 9 in a couple of months and a girl who turns 11 in september. I have always loved working with children animals and the elderly. It does something to my heart and my soul knowing that someone/anyone trusts me to reach out for help or guidance regarding their loved ones but most importantly, I enjoy being able to being the reason someone smiles ! I have over 7 years experience working in this field my first experience was working for a family that had triplets with cerebral palsy. I did housework, homework, feeding, bathing, medicine and occasionally having to be there to keep them safe when a seizure would occur. I recently opened up an inhome daycare service due to covid hitting and schools/daycares being shut down (which i loved!) more time with my munchkins! I LOVE to cook & I love books, art, & anything "nerdy"! i am pretty cool human being and would love to help where I’m welcome

More About Me

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

in homecare provider for triplets with cerebral palsey. In home daycare provider with up to 5 kids at most at one time. also a single parent of two children of my own!

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

learning! numbers, colors, shapes, fun facts, history, spelling etc. Going for walks/park. Building forts! books and movies! we love summer time pool days and we love a fun adventure out in nature! we also love to do arts and crafts; painting,coloring, or card/board games!

The most important part about being a nanny...

being that support for whatever family may need it! do everything with pure intent and be light in someone life where they may feel overwhelmed with darkness! Children are fragile and just want to be heard and understood. keeping them busy with adventures and activities will save us a lot as adults in the long run! they are just little balls of energy and have no idea how to distribute all of that energy! its our jobs to be patient and to guide them

My experience with special needs children...

cerebral palsey, autism, bipolar disorder, handicap, dementia and alzheimers (with the elderly)

The most important part about being a nanny...

Most kids call me KayKay and honestly I have so many beautiful memories with the little hearts i've been blessed to know and love! I think the most rewarding thing for me is when you can truly allow kids to be kids. to be goofy and silly and to make messes or know that it's okay to have a rough day or a little melt down every once in awhile. People have always been drawn to my nurturing energy but especially kids! I have a big soft heart and i believe that children and animals are the purest creatures on this planet and we have to protect them with support, love and guidance! i do feel like I discovered in my 20's headed into my 30's that my purpose in this life is to guide and love other human beings! I am raising my kids with the same love and light and i think i've done a beautiful job so far , they are pretty cool kids!
