About Mikaela

Experience: 10 yrs

I have a very flexible schedule since I have my own business, I can adjust my hours to work with yours! I love working with kids because I get to connect with my inner child, use my creativity to entertain them, and be able to positively impact their lives. I assisted my friend, who is a nanny, with her families whenever she was unavailable. I also cared for my sister's newborn three days a week for nine months. Additionally, I've been caring for a 12-month-old since November! In my spare time I practice yoga, take spanish lessons, read, skate, travel, thrift, etc.

Mikaela is such a wonderful, kind, caring, loving, thoughtful, and trustworthy young woman and I’m so glad that she was available to help watch our infant daughter when our precious childcare situation fell through. My daughter truly loves to be with Mikaela who played with her at my home, took her out to the library, to a baby music class, and even just out to different places—I didn’t even have to ask for her to share location, she just automatically did anytime they went out—something I hadn’t even considered until the notification popped up on my phone. Mikaela always sent me pictures of my daughter throughout the day from the different activities they were doing and I could see how much my daughter enjoyed the time with Mikaela. She’s incredibly helpful too and has helped wash and clean things related to the baby and has been incredibly flexible with my schedule in staying an extra hour or having my daughter ready to go in the car seat if I had an appointment I needed to take her to directly after work. Also, we have pets in our house and Mikaela, although not responsible for them, treated them well and whenever weather allowed outside walks, she always took along my dog as well which was super nice of her to do. Your child will be in amazing hands if she’s with Mikaela and your child will be cherished, loved, and adored and want for nothing with Mikaela. I couldn’t ask for anyone better to have been with my baby.
