A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Kaylyn. I’m an experienced and dependable caregiver who genuinely loves creating a warm, safe, and uplifting space for children. I’ve spent years caring for kids of all ages, and those experiences along with my background in family-centered environments have shaped me into someone who is patient, nurturing, and calm under pressure. I’m currently in nursing school, which has strengthened my understanding of safety, health, and attentive care. I take pride in being someone families can trust, showing up with consistency, compassion, and a true heart for supporting children as they grow.

"She is wonderful with kids! She was taking care of my 2 year old , 5 year old , & 7 year old. My two oldest always ask for her they loved her so much ! She always on time and was willing to always be with the kids whenever it’s needed. She spends great time with the kids such as having them learn how to cook with her. Prep easy meals. Jimena is an active person, loves the outside especially if she with the kids she’s babysitting. My kids screen time was really low compared to when they’re with me. That’s awesome ! I also referred her to my sister and my sister ended up getting along with Jimena. My sisters kids had a great time while jimena was taking care of them ! Jimena is great at what she does all the time."

I have spent the last two summers as an assitant teacher with the Richton Park School District. Specifically, during the summer of 2017, I aided in teaching special education students how to read and write properly. I spent my freshman year of college at Jackson State University, and, although I will not be continuing my education their for personal reasons, I did gain experience while there. I was a college leader for Young Life in Jackson, MS acting as a mentor to high school students. Every Thursday I volunteered at Blackburn Middle School as a teachers aid in Ms.Lee’s eighth grade class. My availability is open around my school schedule and I am available all weekend.
