Hello, my name is Kayla and I am a student at The Ivy Institute of Esthetics. I am offering child and pet care. I currently work at a daycare and would like to provide care during my free time. I have also tutored kids kindergarten through second grade. I do have experience with taking care of pets as well.

“Kayla did great with our 2 y/o daughter! She is reliable, flexible, and punctual. Her approach is very soft spoken and gentle. She’s reserved but you can feel her calm, patient presence. My little one quickly became comfortable with her and that stood out. We will be booking as a recurring family! ”

I keep the children busy with hands-on learning, singing, dancing, age-appropriate books, DVD's and videos along with arts and crafts. I have also worked many years as a care-giver/CNA in private homes and in nursing home facilities. I am First Aid/CPR certified for infants, children and adults. Also, being a former residential cleaning business owner, I have many years of experience in cleaning vacant and occupied properties and doing trash-outs.
