Hi I am Lushay 25 years old I'm a caregiver with a passion for nurturing children's growth and development. With five years of experience in childcare, I've had the privilege of supporting families and providing a safe and nurturing environment for their little ones. Patience and creativity are my superpowers, which help me connect with children and make learning fun. I believe in open communication with parents, keeping them updated about their child's day and addressing any concerns they may have. Whether it's engaging in outdoor activities, playing board games, or exploring educational games, I thrive on creating a joyful and enriching experience for the children in my care. I am happy to assist with cooking, light housekeeping, and travel-related tasks. As a certified CPR provider, safety is always my top priority. I look forward to the opportunity to connect with you and your family.
