About Zola

Experience: 6 yrs

I've been a childcare provider for over six years, and I've always had a passion for working with children. I find great joy in fostering their growth and development. I believe that by providing a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment, I can help children reach their full potential. I have a friendly and approachable personality, and I am patient and calm in my interactions with children. I am also creative and imaginative, and I love to come up with new and exciting ways to engage children in learning and play. I have experience enforcing household rules, and I always follow the parents' lead in this regard. I believe that open communication with parents is essential, and I am always happy to provide verbal updates at pickup or regular updates via text or phone call. I enjoy playing a variety of games with children, including outdoor sports and physical games, board games and puzzles, and educational games that promote learning. I am also willing to help with travel.

My husband and I have had the pleasure of working with Zola during her time as a caretaker for our two young daughters. Zola is a very hardworking individual, who cares very deeply about everything she does. This trait was incredibly evident through the way she loved and cared for our girls. Specifically, what stands out most about her caring nature is how invested she was in ensuring my children were always learning and having fun. She was always coming up with creative ways to keep them engaged, ranging from making up learning games to playing around outside. Our girls were always so excited to see her, and the energy she brought into our home was amazing. Additionally, Zola has always been very communicative. She consistently made sure to keep us updated on anything important while with the kids. These updates gave my husband and I peace of mind that our children were always ok and being cared for. She was also always willing to listen to our requests and rules. This was very important for us, as we want to make sure that our parental guidelines are being followed. Overall, Zola has been involved in the childcare field for many years and is an amazing caretaker. She knows how to connect well with kids, and can balance being very loving and playful, while still maintaining boundaries and structure. I would highly recommend her to any family looking for someone who is not only reliable but truly passionate about what she does.
