About Kayla

Hi! My name is Kayla, and I'm a caring, patient, dependable, and bubbly person who genuinely loves working with children. I have a bachelor's degree in Speech Language Pathology, giving me a strong understanding of child development, communication, and individual needs. I believe children learn best when they feel safe, supported, and comfortable being themselves. I'm very hands on and enjoy keeping kids engaged through games, crafts, reading, homework, outdoor activities, and creative play. I love getting to know each child, making them laugh, helping them learn, and watching their confidence grow. I'm looking for a family with good communication and mutual trust where I can build a genuine connection with the children. As a native New Yorker, I love exploring different neighborhoods and experiencing all NYC has to offer. My top childcare skills are communication, patience, and creativity. I'm attentive to children's needs and know how to meet them where they are.
