Hi! I'm a go-getter with an energetic attitude that kids respond immediately too!! I'm a well-prepared individual who is excited to plan an enriching day that benefits all kids.

My experience allows me to be well versed in facilitating online learning, working with kids with IDD, traveling with families, etc. Looking forward to developing a relationship with your family!

A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Makayla. You can call me Kay :) I am 19 years old! I am a State Registered Certified Nursing Assistant. I am also a Diagnostic Sonography student. Taking care of people has been my passion in life. I find it all very thrilling and fulfilling.
With my job, I have floated to many different units and I have always loved being in Peds. I like to think of myself as a kid still at heart so maybe that is why I love it so much.
I am incredibly patient, gentle and loving.
This will be my first time formally taking care of children outside of my job and I couldn’t be more excited. I hope to add to families and be everything the child needs me to be but most importantly being everything the parents need me to be. You are the boss and I will do my best to be a safe, loving and I do dare to say even perfect caregiver while you do your job as parents.
I am looking forward to meeting my new family. Anything you need I will try my best to be.

Thank you.
- Kay 🩷

A little bit about me

I’m 21 years old, i’ve worked for multiple church camp events that had me working with kids. Recently before I moved out to Lexington I was working at a daycare as a floater so I worked with kids from the ages of 4 months-6 years old. I’m a full time student at UK and will be majoring in elementary education to eventually become a 3rd grade math teacher. I’m also an animal lover as well, so if you need childcare & petcare I can help you out with both. Since i’m in school my schedule is hectic. Monday I wouldn’t be able to help until 1ish/2, Tuesday couldn’t help until 3ish, Wednesday I can help out after 8 PM, Thursday I can help out after 7, but Friday I can work whenever. Saturday & Sunday i’m unavailable because of church.
