Hi my name is Makiah! I’m currently a college student working towards a marketing degree and hopefully your next care giver! I currently have 9 years of experience babysitting and caring for children including newborns, infants, toddlers, elementary, and middle schoolers. Im good with overnights, detailed medical needs, and kids with mental and physical disabilities. I have dogs at home and previously worked at a dog boarding center so I can confidently say I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. Don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions about your specific needs. I’m very flexible and looking forward to meeting you and your little one(s)!

I’m a recent graduate of the Physician Assistant program at St. Ambrose, currently awaiting credentialing, and I would be honored to care for your loved ones during this transition. My experience spans a wide range of caregiving roles, each contributing to my dedication and passion for helping others. I’m a former CNA with a strong understanding of medical care and am fully up-to-date on all vaccinations as well as BLS, ACLS, and PALS certified. I spent two years at a childcare facility, guiding and nurturing children from infants to 6th grade, which deepened my ability to connect with and care for kids of all ages. Beyond professional roles, caregiving has been a lifelong part of who I am—I helped care for my bedridden grandmother for most of my life, providing hands-on support and companionship. I’ve babysat for numerous family friends, developing strong relationships with families and children, and I played a significant role in raising my younger brother. Whether it’s children, seniors, or providing general household support, I bring warmth, responsibility, and adaptability to every situation. I would love the opportunity to provide your family with the care and attention they deserve!
