I love working with kids of all ages but specialize in school ages 5-14. I currently work in a middle school as a social worker and have been working in the mental health field for over 10 years. I am fun loving, caring, and a good match for kids of all ages and needs to support in keeping their day running as smooth as possible. I love theater, art, museums, and reading.
Hi, I'm Naliah. My goal is to be an Art teacher. I love to sing, dance and draw. I am very creative and enjoy arts and craft activities. I am a great storyteller and conversationalist. Overall, I'm just a fun person to be around. I can help with cleaning and organizing. I am responsible and careful. I look forward to working with you.
I have several years of childcare and child development experience through volunteer, leadership, and internship roles. As Head of the Junior Committee at The Child Development Centre, I helped support teaching, structured activities, and volunteer training for children with special education needs. I also completed a Developmental Psychology Internship there, where I observed clinical psychologists, speech-language therapists, occupational therapists, and SEN teachers, and helped with child assessment materials. Additionally, I have volunteered at Saviour Lutheran School, assisting with English instruction and educational activities for underprivileged children with developmental and cognitive disabilities. These experiences have made me patient, attentive, and comfortable supporting children with different learning styles and needs.
I’m a working professional with a full-time role in analytics at a major book publisher, along with a strong background in both childcare and pet care. I grew up with a mom who was an in-home nanny, so caring for children has always been a natural part of my life. From a young age, I was around children of all ages, from newborns through middle school. For the past six years, I also worked as an art teacher before my recent move to the area, primarily working with kids ages 4–11. My experience also includes youth camp counseling, Girl Scouts, and tutoring, giving me a wide range of experience working with children in both educational and recreational settings. I am Adult and Pediatric CPR and First Aid certified through the American Red Cross, and I take safety, responsibility, and creating a comfortable environment for kids very seriously. I also have extensive experience with pets. I grew up with both dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities, from small terriers to Bernese Mountain Dogs. I’ve provided in-home pet care, dog walking, and pet sitting, and I love getting to know each pet’s individual routine and personality. Overall, I’m dependable, caring, and experienced, and I love being someone families can feel comfortable trusting with their children and pets.
With 9 years of experience, I'm passionate about creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment for children. I specialize in caring for toddlers, preschoolers, and gradeschoolers, and I'm comfortable with pets, cooking, chores, and homework assistance. I'm patient, friendly, and responsible, and I love reading, crafting, and playing games with kids. I'm eager to provide exceptional care for your little ones in your home.

"Caitlin was awesome and jumped right in to chaperone four girls (10, 9, 8 and 6) at a family wedding (they were bridesmaids) and she was very helpful with the event as well as taking them home and putting them to bed."
Lila P., parent

"McKenna was great with our 3 year old son! She came prepared with a box of fun activities and handled playing, dinner, and bedtime seamlessly... and it was all at our hotel while we were in town for a wedding. Thank you McKenna!"
