About Anika

Experience: 6 yrs

Nurturing children has always been a genuine passion of mine. My positive experiences babysitting, instructing taekwondo, and working in a child psychology lab solidified my desire to pursue childcare. With six years of experience, I offer patient, calm, creative, and friendly care. I enjoy playing board games, reading books, and engaging in educational activities with children. I am comfortable caring for up to 4 kids, and happy to help with cooking, light housekeeping, and carpooling. I maintain open communication with parents through verbal updates and follow their preferred method. I also follow the parents' lead when enforcing household rules. I have First Aid Training and CPR Training. I'm excited to bring my dedication and skills to your family, creating a fun and supportive environment for your little one to thrive!

Anika first met my child when she was six months old, now almost two. She was caring, loving and patient through changing nap times, teething, exploring and playing. She is attentive, helping, communicative, and responsive to feedback.
