About Shakena

With 12 years of dedicated experience, I find true fulfillment in nurturing children and supporting families. My graduate education informs my approach, allowing me to provide reliable, high-quality care for up to two children ranging from infants to pre-teens. I am patient, calm, and approachable, creating a warm environment where children feel secure. I enjoy engaging them through educational games, puzzles, and board games that spark curiosity. Because I am comfortable with cooking and meal preparation, I am happy to provide healthy options for your family. I maintain open communication through your preferred method, whether via text or a detailed conversation at pickup. I am very comfortable upholding your household rules to ensure consistency for your little ones. My goal is to make a lasting, positive impact on the lives of the children I care for. I offer flexible babysitting from my home, with parent drop-off and pickup required, and would be happy to meet in person first.
