About Kota

My passion is creating nurturing, engaging environments where children feel safe, supported, and excited to learn. With two years of experience caring for infants through pre-teens, I've learned how to connect with each child as a unique individual. My background in education and understanding of neurodiversity help me guide children's emotional growth through creativity, play, and patience. Families describe me as adaptable, empathetic, and consistently reliable. I communicate clearly, follow household routines with ease, and am comfortable setting gentle but firm boundaries. I love exploring a wide range of activities with kids--arts and crafts, imaginative play, sensory games, outdoor adventures, and anything that speaks to their personal interests. I am CPR-certified, Caregiver certified, experienced supervising groups of up to eight children, experience with special needs and other conditions, and happy to assist with light cooking, housekeeping, and swimming supervision.
