About Makayla

Experience: 3 yrs

Hi! My name is Makayla, and I'm a 20-year-old upcoming junior majoring in Psychology with a minor in Nutrition & Food Science. I'm passionate about working with children and creating a safe, supportive, and fun environment where they can learn and grow. I started working with kids 3 years ago at my dance studio, where I assisted dance classes and helped mentor younger dancers. Since then, I've continued building my childcare experience by working as a counselor in a YMCA aftercare program, helping children with activities, homework, and daily routines. I would describe my personality as caring, dependable, and energetic. I am CPR and First Aid certified, and I always prioritize safety while still making sure children are having fun and feeling comfortable. In my spare time, I enjoy dancing, spending time with family and friends, staying active, and exploring new hobbies. My top 3 childcare skills are: • Communication • Patience • Creativity
