About Ayana
Experience: 20 yrs
I'm Ayana, a career educator and experienced caregiver specializing in infants, sibling groups, & neurodiverse kids. I've spent over a decade working with families in both school and home settings. I'm known for stepping in smoothly, building trust quickly, and creating calm, fun, structured environments where kids feel safe. I'm great at setting clear, kind limits and redirecting kids without power struggles or harsh 'no's.' My background includes classroom teaching, K-12 substitute teaching, coaching, and long-term childcare. I've also performed for four seasons at the Hollywood Bowl's Summer Sounds Festival, connecting with over half a million kids & families. I hold an MFA from CalArts, a BA from Smith College, and I'm CPR-certified & trained in trauma-informed family communication. I look forward to giving parents the support they need, and little ones the gentle guidance they deserve with a little fairy dust. Happy to share my resume & learn more about your family.

Ayana took care of our 3.5 year old and 15 month old. She was on time and communicative. The kids loved Ayana! She kept them engaged playing pretend and listening to music, we would highly recommend Ayana!
