About Dakota
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I'd describe my personality as outgoing, upbeat, bubbly, and creative. I love working with kids because they bring so much joy to whoever is around. I started working with kids when I was 6 years old. I have watched my niece and nephew since they were born. When I was around 10, I would watch my dad's coworker's kids while the mom tended to the baby. At 12 is when I started to babysit alone with the two kids, ages from 2-4. Then around 16 I started to watch another kiddo, age 10, also a dad's coworker's kid. In my spare time, I like to read book, paint, color, sew, and train my service dog (please note that I do not need him with me when tending to your family. One thing you should know about me is I was a behavioral technician for kids with autism, I am very good at dealing with difficult behaviors. My skills include caring, comforting, and dealing with difficult behaviors. I am covid and flu vaccinated with boosters.

Our son ABSOLUTELY loved Kota. Leaving for college is the only reason she no longer babysits for us. She is caring, kind, gentle, and always did what we asked her to do.
