Hi! I'm Shanita, a compassionate caregiver with years of hands-on experience supporting grandparents, new moms, and children of all ages. As a Doula and Holistic Practitioner, I bring a calm, nurturing presence and a deep understanding of emotional, mental, and behavioral needs. Whether assisting elders, helping moms recover after birth, or redirecting and engaging energetic little ones, I show up with patience, empathy, and reliability. I have experience assisting those with dementia and mobility challenges, de-escalating stressful situations, and incorporating memory care activities. I communicate with families by respecting their preferred methods. Earning your trust is my priority. I'm eager to use my skills to support your loved one's well-being and independence.
Shanita is truly a gift. Her love, kindness, and patience are unmatched, and the level of nurturing she provides knows no bounds. She brought a calm, grounding presence into our home while still maintaining order, cleanliness, and a sense of peace. My children were always clean, full, happy, and completely satisfied under her care—which speaks volumes about her dedication and natural ability to connect with little ones. I was genuinely astonished by her service, her professionalism, and her unwavering commitment to both my children and my household. Her experience shines through in everything she does, and her nurturing spirit is something rare and deeply appreciated. Shanita is an authentic, exceptional caregiver, and we were truly blessed to have her support. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
