I am currently a BSN student hoping to become a pediatric nurse. While in high school, I created and taught bi-weekly lesson plans for a Pre-K program through my child development class. I volunteered at my church nursery for a year with 1 and 2-year-olds, keeping them entertained and engaged. I also babysat periodically for a family of 3 boys with special needs, whom I loved dearly. I work several part-time jobs, one as a housekeeper at a salon, and would love to babysit more frequently. I have my own transportation, can help with homework, and will do simple chores and meal prep.

I am a mother of three grown children, have one grandchild, and have worked in special education with children ranging in age from 3 years to 12 years since 2005. The vast majority of those years have been spent with elementary-aged students who have been diagnosed with autism. I am a certified substitute teacher and former Registered Behavior Technician. My tenet has always been to treat every child with whom I work with the same love, dignity and respect as I would want my own loved ones to be treated.

Hi! My name is Da’Zia, and I’ve been working in childcare for over 6 years. I began my career as a daycare assistant, supporting preschool and infant classrooms. In the preschool room, I helped with circle time, lunches, field trips, and recess, while in the infant room I assisted with naptime, diaper changes, tummy time, and bottle feeding. Since then, I’ve had the joy of working as a nanny in a variety of settings. I spent three summers caring for two children, taking them to and from summer camp, and planning fun outings like visits to The Magic House, Rockin’ Jump, and the zoo. I also cared for a 5-month-old and 1-year-old in a joint nanny position, supporting their daily routines with walks, meal prep, nap time, tummy time, and age-appropriate activities like music and sensory play. Most recently, I cared for three children in Kirkwood for 3.5 years, while also gaining experience as a behavior technician and working with SSD children for the past two years. I hold a substitute certificate and enjoy supporting children with diverse needs. I am patient, dependable, and passionate about helping children learn, grow, and have fun. I strive to create a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment where children feel supported and valued.
