A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Kayma Mays, and I’m currently seeking a nanny position where I can continue doing what I love most—supporting, encouraging, and caring for children as they grow and thrive.
I’m currently enrolled in online college, pursuing a degree in Early Childhood Education, which reflects my deep passion for working with children and my commitment to continued learning. I also work as a Teacher Assistant in a special education classroom at a local school. This role has given me invaluable experience in providing patient, compassionate, and individualized support to children with a wide range of needs and abilities.
I believe in nurturing each child’s unique potential and creating a safe, positive environment that fosters growth, confidence, and joy. Whether it’s helping with homework, engaging in creative play, or supporting daily routines, I’m dedicated to being a consistent, caring, and encouraging presence in a child’s life.
