Hi, I’m Shantana. I’m a kind, compassionate, and caring person born and raised in Jamaica and migrated to the u.s when I was 20 years old. As the oldest of my siblings, caregiving has always been a part of my day-to-day. So, naturally, I turned to childcare as a profession at the age of 16, and I’ve never looked back. My background caring for infants and toddlers started when I worked as a pre-school assistant in the daycare at my high school. After high school I went on to community college where I studied Early Childhood Education and obtained a diploma. I’ve been working in childcare for the last 10 years and I enjoy every minute of it. I and am CPR & First Aid certified. Fully vaccinated Covid-19 (boosted) and flu. I am so excited to meet your family and my hope in my time with you is to Read more create a lasting impact through care, attention, and fun! Can’t wait to meet you!
