Hi, I’m Kieara. I’m 18 years old and have a genuine passion for caring for children. I have hands-on experience with infants, including feeding, diaper changes, bottle preparation, soothing, nap routines, and creating a safe, loving environment. I’ve also helped care for NICU babies and supported my cousin through the births of her three children, assisting with newborn care from the very beginning. In addition, I’ve cared for a family member with autism and helped care for my grandmother with dementia, which has strengthened my patience, compassion, and ability to adapt to different needs. I plan to become a nurse, so caring for others is something I truly love. My goal is to make every child feel safe, happy, and cared for while giving parents peace of mind. I’m dependable, attentive, and excited to become someone your family can trust.
