About Mikayla

Experience: 10 yrs

As the eldest daughter of a single mom I was considered the built-in nanny. I started bottle feeding and changing diapers when I was 7 and helped raised my three younger brothers as well as my four step siblings on my dads side. I also have experience caring for neurodivergent children, people with extra needs and developmentally disabled children and adults. Now retired from my older sister duties I have the knowledge, patience and skill set to take on any toddler in their terrible twos! I can cook, clean, help with homework and come up with fun activities away from the screens.

Hiring Mikayla as a babysitter for our two-year-old son, who has autism, was a decision that brought an incredible sense of peace and positivity into our household. From the first day, her calm and positive energy made a noticeable difference, connecting with our son in a way that significantly reduced his frustrations and brought him peace, something we had not seen before. She is kind, thoughtful, and highly attentive, engaging our son with interactive and sensory play tailored to his needs. Her ability to tune into his feelings and provide comfort and joy has been amazing to see. Mikayla is dependable and her dedication to his development is clear in every interaction. We would definitely hire her again and highly recommend her to any family looking for a compassionate, skilled, and loving caregiver.
