About Najaya

Experience: 8 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hi there! My name is Jay, and I've been a loving and dedicated nanny for 8 years. Caring for children has always been my passion, whether it's soothing an infant during nap time, helping a toddler explore the world through play, or supporting school-age kids with homework and activities. I've worked with children of all ages, from infants to school age, and I'm confident adapting to any stage of development. My experience includes cooking nutritious meals, organizing engaging activities, managing busy schedules, and even traveling with families to lend an extra pair of hands. What sets me apart is my gentle, warm approach I always strive to create a safe, nurturing space where kids feel supported and free to be themselves. I also love incorporating fun into the everyday, whether that's crafting, playing games, or enjoying an impromptu dance party!

I am almost teary eyed writing this review. I had a very complicated labor, and shortly after birth I experienced severe PPD. For Weeks I was unable to nurse, or care for my children at all so I began searching for a caregiver and found the angel that was Najaya instead. From Day 1 she was the sweetest, most kindest person (for me and my daughter) always went above and beyond, and never made me feel guilty on the days that I needed her to stay longer. I have a pre-schooler and a 2nd grader and when needed she was able to assist with them also homework help, meal prep, bath time she had it all covered .My husband and I never worried about if the kids were okay with Najaya and that was a huge relief as sometimes hiring strangers can be scary.The time that we had with her was AMAZING would recommend her 1000% again and again.
