Hi! I am the oldest child to 2 little brothers (6 and 12). I love animals and going on adventures! I was a camp counselor for 2 years at an overnight camp where I cultivated my skills as a leader, educator, team player, communicator, public speaker, and creative problem-solver by leading cabin of 11-14 children, specifically, ranging the ages of 9-13. I was able to demonstrate strong work ethic and organizational skills through round-the-clock responsibility for developing programming and teaching campers aged 6-16 to enhance their personal, interpersonal, leadership, and athletic skills. I also was a waterskiing instructor and maintain an American Red Cross Certificate of: Lifeguarding/First Aid/CPR/AED/Waterfront.

I've known Kaya for most of her life. She is kind, compassionate, reliable, responsible, loyal, honest, hard working, creative, fun and mature. I am the Director at Camp Newfound, a sleep away summer camp for children. Kaya has been a counselor at Camp Newfound, taking care of children ages 6- 16. Kaya always goes above and beyond... she will exceed your expectations. Kaya is excellent at finding a balance between having high standards for the kids and being playful and fun with them. Kaya is not just a care giver... she helps others grow! She is all about looking for the good, helping others shine and supporting others. I trust her completely and would hire her over and over again.
