About Mahkia

I am a hardworking, responsible, and caring person who truly enjoys working with children. I love being active, spending time outdoors, and creating a fun, safe, and positive environment for kids. I have years of hands-on experience helping care for my 3 nephews and 2 nieces, and I have also worked at a Montessori daycare for about a year, as well as in a seasonal summer daycare program through the YMCA. In these roles, I supervised children, created daily lesson plans, and helped with homework. These experiences have helped me become patient, energetic, dependable, and great at connecting with kids. Outside of childcare, I skate on a synchronized figure skating team for Team USA, where we compete nationally and internationally. I also played soccer from grade school through high school, and it remains one of my favorite sports.
