A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Kayla Lambert. I am 20 years old (21 this year). I was born and raised in Connecticut. My family and I moved to Estero, Florida in August of 2015. In May 2017, I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Estero High School. There, I obtained my DCF training hours (45 hours), making me qualified to work in any childcare facility in Florida. Since then, I have babysat and nannied for many families in the Southwest Florida area, including but not limited to, Naples, Bonita Springs, Estero, and Fort Myers. I was also a preschool teacher at Discovery Day Academy for two years. In addition to extensive childcare experience, I am also a mom to an eight month old boy, and a trained postpartum doula. Infant care is my speciality!

Recent reference

"Lisa was an amazing help to me and my two kids (5,7). While I was working, Lisa would get the kids ready and off to school, make lunches, and run errands during the day. She is 100 percent trustworthy and was always putting safety of my kids above everything. Not only would she get errands finished, but did laundry and grocery shopping. Lisa is a great cook and was always willing to start dinner or meal prep for me when needed. I was so sorry to lose her when she returned to Florida. Responsible and hardworking people are so hard to come by! Lisa is a true gem and any one would greatly benefit from her hard work and wonderful personality!"
