Hi family's, my name is Makayla and I'm 21 years old. My passion for childcare began at age 12, when I started building long-term relationships with local families as a trusted babysitter. Over the years, I have cultivated a diverse professional background in child development, ranging from serving as a camp counselor, working as a lead preschool teacher in Ramsey. My experience spans all age groups, from newborns and infants to school-aged children. With a strong foundation in both formal childcare centers and community-based youth programs, I am eager to bring my nurturing, educational, and reliable approach to your family.
We hired her through Care.com and would absolutely hire her again. She is patient, dependable, and has a wonderful attitude toward learning and growth. She is very teachable, open to feedback, and consistently applies what she learns in a thoughtful way. One thing we especially appreciated was her interest in supporting healthy habits in our home. She has learned about nutritious foods and understands the importance of outdoor play, nature exploration, and hands-on learning experiences. She was also incredibly supportive of our son's early learning journey. She helped foster his love of books, letters, and reading, and encouraged his development in engaging ways. Our son enjoyed spending time with her, and we always felt confident that he was being cared for with kindness, patience, and attention. She is trustworthy, caring, and genuinely invested in helping children thrive. We highly recommend her to any family looking for a dependable caregiver and would gladly work with her again in the future.
