About Jakira

Experience: 6 yrs

Bringing joy to children's lives is my passion. My six years of babysitting experience have solidified my desire to positively impact young lives and support families. I am patient, creative, and approachable, and I enjoy playing outdoors, board games, and educational games with children. I provide regular updates via text and verbal communication at pickup. I am comfortable enforcing household rules. I am First Aid Training and CPR Training certified. I also have experience with special needs children. I'm happy to help with cooking, meal preparation, and light housekeeping. Caring for one child at a time allows me to provide focused, individualized attention but if you have more that's totally fine as well. I hope to bring my enthusiasm and dedication to your family!

This review is based on a one day work experience with this caretaker. She came in 2/3/26 and texted that she was sick 2/4/26. Due to our families need for consistency and reliability we chose not continue with her. I will say she did really well with my son and she arrived early. She had first day jitters which reflected but nothing too bad. My only concern was that she lied about her reference and prior work experience (Janelle M is actually her mother). Experience was positive overall!
