About Makayla

Based in Athens, Georgia with 5 years of childcare experience. During this time, I have managed daily responsibilities for children from newborn to age 5, adapting activities and routines to changing developmental and family needs. I also value communication with parents to maintain consistent routines and align care with family expectations. I am skilled in independently balancing childcare responsibilities with household organization and daily tasks. I hold a degree in Human Development and Family Science, and during this time I focused on studying the impacts of screen time on children's social and emotional development, and also developed educational content for a mental health program for families. I support children through encouraging self-directed play and exploration through nature, art, and reading.
