About Makena

As a licensed therapist, I've always had a genuine passion for helping others grow and feel supported. I bring that same care and patience into working with children and families and would love to become someone your family can feel comfortable with. I have a 2-year-old niece I adore (as seen in my profile picture), so I'm very comfortable spending time with little ones. I have a strong understanding of child development and the different needs that come with each stage, from toddlers to teenagers. I'm warm, patient, reliable, and creative, and I love creating an environment where kids can have fun. I'm very respectful of each family's routines, parenting preferences, household rules, and I'm happy to communicate however you prefer. My First Aid and CPR certification has expired, but I'd be more than happy to renew it. I'd love to be a calm, caring, and dependable presence that your family feels at ease having around! I'd describe my personality as calm, creative, and friendly
