Hi! My name is Kayla, and I’m the eldest of six kids, so I’ve had plenty of experience looking after children, including my youngest sibling, who is 13 years younger than me. I’ve been babysitting cousins and family friends since I was 12, and have been entrusted with children of all ages, including infants under one year old. I also worked as a summer sleepaway camp counselor, where I led activities, ensured the safety of campers, and helped foster a fun and positive environment. Originally from the U.S., I’ve recently moved to New Zealand to be with my partner and am in the process of staying here permanently. I’m very crafty, love reading and writing, enjoy playing board games, and spending time outdoors. I’m passionate about creating engaging and enriching experiences for the kids I care for. I have flexible availability at the moment, so please feel free to reach out if you’d like to discuss how I can support your family!
