A little bit about me
Hello, my name is Malia.
Working with children is my passion! In fact, I am currently attending LeTourneau University for this sole purpose of being able to work with children in the Counseling field for the rest of my life.
Growing up in a family of five children from various parts of the world (we're all adopted from Haiti, South Korea, Pakistan, and USA), I have to say that I got my love from babysitting from that experience. I am the oldest and therefore was the one who would be doing babysitting whenever my parents needed to step out of the house.
During all of these big sister baby sitting sessions, I also worked for this big family of 8, where some of their children were also adopted for 2 whole years.
Their children ranged from twins of 14 years old, to a 10 year old boy, to a 7 year old, twin 3 year old girls (not biologically - but the same age), and 1 year old boy. Needless to say, I had my hand happily full with the Kenisons!
Loved working for them.
I have also worked for this school, Living Waters Christian School, for a year. I was a preschool teacher there. I did duties ranging from teaching alphabets, to simple math, to potty training, and taking care of new born in the nursery. ALSO LOVED that job! Those babies were super adorable.
Why am I not still working for those places anymore? Sadly (but also excitingly due to what is happening right now) I've moved since then. As stated previously, I am attending LeTourneau University where I strive to get a Master's in Counseling Psychology so that I can then concentrate my studying to my first love, Children!
I wish to be a counselor for children and their parents. Navigating those few precious years of a child's life is crucial for a wholesome and complete adult individual who will make positive impact in this world. Sometimes parents find themselves at lost as the wake up one morning to a completely different "child" then the one that went to bed.
Some lose hope and allow those trying...

A little bit about me
My name is Kyla Spencer, and I’m a dedicated, energetic, and compassionate childcare professional based in Lima, Ohio, currently looking to relocate. With years of hands-on experience caring for children from infancy through their early teens, I’m excited about the opportunity to support your family. I pride myself on being hardworking and proactive. I was honored as the first female All-American at my school—an achievement that reflects my drive and leadership. I’ve cared for children from 3 months to 14 years and held roles ranging from nanny to nanny/house manager, balancing childcare with household tasks. Growing up in a foster family gave me early experience managing multiple children’s needs and creating a calm, structured space. I’m certified in infant and adult CPR, First Aid, and AED, and I have a clean driving record with a reliable vehicle. I would love the opportunity to bring my experience, energy, and care into your home and become a trusted part of your family’s team.

"Gabrielle expresses a raw talent a lot of Nannies that I had before didn’t. She genuinely loved and cared for my little ones as if they were her own. Always on time, would come at drop of a hat if we had an emergency. I wish we could take her with us on our journey but we can’t. A beautiful individual inside and out. I would recommend her 1000x over if I had to."
