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!!”
I have one child who is 30 years of age and several nieces and nephews that I have cared for over some years. I have cared for my grandmother and also my father. I am very passionate, caring, patient and understanding.
