Hi, my name is Nyala West! I'm 25 years old, I'm a college student at UMD Baltimore and I'm studying to be a medical social worker. I enjoy and have worked as a caretaker for majority of my life, as I've babysat and cared for my little sister and two twin girls for over four years. Some of the responsibilties included in my experience is providing compassionate care children aged seven and ten with severe allergies, managing daily routines such as cooking meals, implementing fun and creative actviites such as arts and crafts and going to the park and openly communicating with parents regarding children's needs. I am known for being patient, kind, funny, nurturing and reliable. I truly love working with children because it brings me joy to support their growth, creativity, and learning in a caring environment. I am excited about the opportunity to bring my passion for childcare to your family and look forward to getting to know your family!
