About Nikiya

Experience: 6 yrs

Hello! My name is Nikiya, and I'm a compassionate, dependable, and experienced caregiver with a genuine passion for helping others. I have over 5 years of private nanny experience, along with professional home care experience. I am a State-Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and BLS certified, currently expanding my healthcare skills through Patient Care Technician (PCT), EKG, and Phlebotomy training. I provide a safe, nurturing, respectful, and positive environment while assisting with daily routines, personal care, companionship, meal preparation, and age-appropriate activities. As a mother of three, I understand the importance of patience, communication, trust, and treating every individual like family. Whether caring for children, seniors, or individuals needing additional support, I bring professionalism, compassion, and a personal touch to every home. Your loved ones deserve exceptional care, and that's exactly what I strive to provide!

Nikiya has nannied for my family, specifically my toddler for over a year, consistently, since July of 2024. She has been a phenomenal caregiver and partner during this time - kind, caring, punctual, and a great communicator, just the kid of person you would love with your kiddos. We had a set weekly schedule, never any attendance issues or issues with changes needed on my end. She has helped my son through potty training and learning activities, taken him on sometimes daily trips for both fun, learning, and getting those wiggles out. Needless to say my family and son absolutely adore her! My youngest is starting preschool this year and honestly we questioned keeping him home another year due to the phenomenal care but ultimately decided it’s time for school, so we will no longer need our full weekly care schedule. You will not regret having Nikiya as an addition to your care team.
