Booked by 2 families in Grosse Ile, MI

Hi, I’m Shylah! I’m a part-time student at Wayne community college with a passion for working with children. Over the past 7 years, I’ve babysat my nephews regularly since they were 10 months old. I’ve recently gained 1 year of professional experience in childcare with children ranging 4 months old to 3 years old. I prioritize creating a nurturing environment where kids feel safe, happy, and excited to learn and play.

Shylah is very professional, loved playing with my son, cared for my two dogs, and cleaned up right before I got home. Can’t wait for her to come again!!

Mya Canton
$20 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! I’m a dependable and nurturing caregiver with years of hands-on experience across childcare, pet care, and home support. I’ve helped raise my younger siblings and cousins from a young age and have babysat for families throughout Canton during high school and middle school. I’m especially experienced with toddlers and kids (ages 2–12), including those with autism and ADHD — my own little brother and cousins have given me firsthand insight and patience in neurodiverse care. I’ve studied psychology and sociology in school, so I understand not only how to care, but why children need the right kind of attention and emotional support at every stage. Parents have called me mature beyond my years, with a natural ability to make kids feel safe and heard. I’m currently an intern at a real estate agency and on track to receive my Michigan license this year — a path that’s helped sharpen my professionalism and organization, while still allowing me the flexibility to do what I love: caregiving. As for pets — I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, including my current shih tzu who’s been with me over 10 years. I’m also no stranger to cleaning; I’ve maintained large family homes (like my dad’s in Ypsilanti), helped my aunts around their houses, and take pride in keeping a tidy, welcoming space. Whether you’re looking for a sitter, pet companion, or just an extra set of reliable hands — I’ve got you covered. I show up with care, calm, and a whole lot of heart.
