About Yahjah

Experience: 10 yrs

I work with children from newborn to teens. I have cared for children for about 5 plus years both privately and through a reputable Nanny agency. My duties include arts and crafts, outings (museum, park, aquarium etc...), reading, preparing for bed, transportation and many more. My goal is to ensure a safe and nurturing environment for each child while meeting the parent(s) guidelines and expectations. Throughout my experience I've learned that discussing expectations and asking lots of questions is vital. Every family is different and I pride myself in being flexible and molding myself around what each family needs and requests. It is important that the parents values are enforced. I enjoy singing, dancing, playing outside and moving around. Each child I have cared for has a special place in my heart and I value being a light in such an important time of their development.

Yahjah became part of our family! She provided individualized, compassionate care for our daughter asking her likes/dislikes really engaging to align herself with our parenting style. She was a great addition to our family, and someone I easily trusted with my daughter at home and on "field trips" out and about. She sent pics and updates throughout the day that made me feel engaged in my daughter's day while at work. Sorry we had to move out of state but highly recommend!
