Profile

Hi, my name is Shayla Selon, and I am a student at the University of Georgia studying to become a speech-language pathologist (speech therapist). I am certified in CPR, First Aid, and AED for both pediatric and adult care. I live in Athens to attend school, I don’t have my own car at the moment, but I am currently in the process of getting a new one however I will still have transportation. I don’t smoke, I am also fine with pets. I have been babysitting since last January, and this past summer, I worked as a camp counselor at KE Camps located at Reynolds in Lake Oconee. I have experience caring for children as young as two months up to 12 years old. I truly enjoy interacting with kids – it is such a rewarding experience. I love always strive to make my time with the kids I watch enjoyable. I remember what it was like meeting someone new for the first time – it can be a little scary. My goal is to create a fun and positive experience so that they feel as comfortable as possible while their parents are away. If you have any questions for me, please feel free to reach out. I would be more than happy to schedule an interview with you over the phone if that’s something you would prefer. I look forward to hearing from you soon, and I hope you enjoy the rest of your day!

Reviews

Shayla is such a blessing. She is so wonderful with my two boys (2 years and 4 years) and her experience in speech pathology has helped tremendously with my oldest, who currently attends special sessions at school. She is reliable, experienced, and communicates consistently. She ...Read morecan handle anything my kids have going on, from potty training to bringing fun, education activities when she comes over. If you get the ability to hire her as your baby sitter, you will be able to work/go out with ease knowing your little ones are in good hands. And best way to know she is great- my kids love her!

Shayla started caring for our son as early as 3 months old. She has been very understanding and supportive with all the changes and learning curves that occur within the first year for an infant. She has great communication skills (keeps track of naps and feeds. She even gives us...Read more text/photo updates while we are away.) We have had a wonderful experience working with Shayla.
