About Nya
Experience: 9 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello! My name is Nya (she/hers). I am a well-rounded young professional with over 8. 5+ years of professional experience as a caregiver. My journey as a first generation scholar cultivated my penchant for mental health and its real-world applications. I hold a PhD in Clinical Psychology. My employment experiences as a nanny, YMCA summer camp counselor, have afforded me the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with families from all walks of life. I am disciplined, reliable and hold personal qualities of compassion, flexibility, kindness, and empathy. One of my strengths is my ability to multitask and communicate effectively, this has helped me strengthen my cultural-emotional awareness, and competency. I am skilled in assisting with daily living activities, including transportation, extracurricular activities, chores, meal preparation and personal care for children ages 6 months to 14 years and children with special needs.

I first met Nya during the summer bridge program. The summer bridge program is where college students come three weeks early for college classes, and to grow in leadership skills. Nya is also a teammate of mine for track and we worked together. Nya is a close friend of mine and I have been in many activities with her so I have since many different qualities. From being in track with Nya, I see how hardworking she is. The only time she is disappointed in a race is when she doesn't give her all. Not only is she hardworking but she is supportive and encourages her teammates. She not only wants to be the best she can be, she wants those around her to also achieve their best. From working with Nya, I see her dedication, she doesn't like to miss work nor show up late to work. Doing her best at all she does is important to her. From being in classes with her, she honestly motivates me to get my work done. Nya is considered a leader here and many people look up to her. Nya also works at the YMCA and she has great experience with kids. She loves babysitting for one of our track coaches' kids.
