Chatiqua Keyes-Carr is a 32-year-old single mom of two girls who has her Bachelors Degree in Arts and Science as well as her CDA in infant and toddlers. Chatiqua has worked at Saint Vincent Child Care Center for eight and a half years. She started out as per diem, which led to a full-time floater position placing her in every room in the center. After six years of being a floater, she finally had her own room in the Toddler Room. She became the Lead teacher after being there for a year. Chatiqua has worked with infants to preschool age. She has a passion for working with children. She was always concerned about the child's development as well as their social development. She made bonds between the children and their families. Chatiqua later became a private Nanny for a family she met at the center she worked at. Now she is ready to own her own, and she's learned how to listen to the child and the parent. Communication is her biggest asset. Chatiqua also teaches liturgical dancing at her church for ages 5 to 11 and 12 to 18.
