About Makayla

Experience: 14 yrs

I have been working with children for over 10 years, and have my BA & MS in education. I have spent past summers nannying, and we had some great times together going to the library, parks, nature center, and other local spots to enrich their summer. I'd describe my personality as positive, active, and empathetic. I like working with kids because they make everything more fun! I'm looking for a job that provides an opportunity to enjoy our city and the summer weather! In my spare time, I like to garden, read, and walk my dog. One thing you should know about me is I love the water! I have experience teaching swim lessons to all ages; I would love to teach your child how to swim or strengthen their skills. My skills include doing a lot of activities in a day, keeping play areas clean, and making excellent snacks!

My boys loved having Makayla nanny for them. She filled their summer with fun adventures, games, reading, and even taught them to tie their shoes. Makayla is very responsible and communicative and will provide excellent care.
