A little bit about me

I am very fun and caring. I have plenty of energy and can keep up with the children I look after. I will have a plan to act in an emergency and will ideally be trained in CPR or be willing to learn. I always let the parents know where the children are and I am reachable at all times. I am respectful of the family’s privacy and sensitive to any personal issues that may arise. I want to know all the details of how the parents like things to be done and I am willing to follow those steps. I have a basic understanding of the different stages of child development, I'm able to care for babies, toddlers or older children and I know how to integrate play, learning and fun. I understand the importance of nutrition for children and can prepare simple meals.

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Khaya, I am 19 years old and I love kids!
Over past 3 years I have worked with 3 different families. Ages 1-12. The two most important things to me are the children and making the parents feel comfortable with allowing me to babysit their children then eventually trusting me.
I am available part time even on weekends. I have my own transportation and I also work a part time job at Kohls. My hours and days are VERY flexible.

I love arts & craft and doing little art or science projects with the children. I love to cook meals or little healthy snacks for the children.
