Experience: 5 yrs
Hello! My name is Mikayla and I have just graduated with Health Science degree from JMU! I am currently taking classes for an online master program at Longwood for Speech Language Pathology. I have been with numerous family's since 2020 when COVID hit. I was with a wonderful family for a year in which I cared for a 16 month and helped with many daily activities. We loved playing inside with dolls and building blocks, going on walks, going to the playground, and watching frozen (twice a day...) I also worked with 6-year-old twins for two years! We loved going to the park, building 40, playing basketball, going to the trampoline park, and most of all getting ice cream. I worked with five boys under the age of 10 with one boy being only 5 days old! Most recently I've been working with a 5-month-old. Though it was a challenge and a handful, I loved every minute. I adore working with kids, and I hope to make their days a little brighter each time I see them.

Mikayla worked for our family part-time watching our 5-month old while I worked from home. She is very kind, dependable, and attentive to my child’s needs. She worked with our son to help reach milestones and showed patience as he went through various regressions. I would highly recommend Mikayla as a caregiver and gladly hire her again!
