About Shantoya

Experience: 8 yrs

Hi! My name is Shantoya, and I am a dependable, caring, and patient caregiver with a strong healthcare background. I have several years of experience working as a medical assistant in emergency rooms, urgent care, and specialty medical offices, including experience working with pediatric patients. I am CPR/BLS certified and passionate about creating a safe, supportive, and positive environment for children. I can assist with after-school care, homework help, meal prep, light housekeeping, bedtime routines, and keeping children engaged in fun and educational activities. Families describe me as responsible, trustworthy, compassionate, and easy to communicate with. I understand the importance of safety, structure, and treating every child with kindness and patience. I am currently seeking babysitting, nanny, and after-school care opportunities and would love the chance to support a great family!

Shantoya 😍😍😍 has been an absolute blessing to my family. She helped care for my kids for an entire year and went above and beyond every single day. She is loving, patient, dependable, attentive, and treated my children like they were her own. One moment I will never forget was when one of my kids started choking. Shantoya stayed calm, acted immediately, performed CPR, and helped my child. That moment showed me not only how experienced and capable she is, but how deeply she truly cares. She always kept the kids engaged, made sure they felt safe, helped maintain routines, and gave me peace of mind whenever I was away. As a parent, finding someone you trust with your children is everything, and Shantoya earned that trust completely. I’m forever grateful for everything she has done for my family and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone caring, responsible, and amazing with children ❤️
