Michaela Podlenski

Hi! My name is Michaela. I have been caring for children from infancy through age 10 since I was 16, and I truly enjoy getting to know each child’s personality, interests, and what helps them feel safe, confident, and supported. I have experience caring for multiple children of different ages at once and take pride in creating a calm, engaging, and fun environment where kids can learn, play, and thrive.

I am attentive to parent instructions, daily routines, and household guidelines to ensure you feel comfortable and confident leaving your children in my care. I focus on screen-minimal, meaningful play through imaginative games, crafts, reading, outdoor activities, and other interactive experiences. I’m comfortable with most pets and am happy to assist with meal and snack preparation. My goal is always to provide nurturing, dependable care while fostering a steady, peaceful, and joyful environment for your family.
