About Tonya

Experience: 20 yrs

I'm passionate about supporting families and helping children grow and learn. With 20 years of experience caring for children of all ages, I'm a patient, creative, and friendly individual who is very comfortable enforcing household rules. I believe in open and regular communication with parents and will provide updates on your child's day via text or phone call, whichever you prefer. I enjoy playing a variety of games with children, including outdoor sports, board games, and educational games that promote learning. I am also a skilled swimmer and would love to teach your children how to swim. I've completed coursework in Early Child Development and hold certifications in First Aid Training and CPR Training. I'm also willing to help with carpooling, light housekeeping, travel, and swimming supervision. I'm confident that my experience, skills, and passion for childcare make me an ideal choice for your family. I look forward to the opportunity to meet you and your children!

It is with great pleasure that I recommend Tonya. She was an integral part of our family for nearly 8 years, and we are so thankful for the love and care she gave our children. Tonya is kind, compassionate, and incredibly reliable. Our three kids absolutely adored her, and it was clear that she felt the same way about them. Tonya has a wonderfully creative spirit and always finds new ways to keep the children engaged and excited. Whether it was through crafts, games, or imaginative play, she brought so much fun into their lives. Tonya quickly became more than just a caregiver—she became a true member of our family, and we are confident that she will bring the same warmth, creativity, and care to any family fortunate enough to have her.
