(But you and your child may call me Sangz or SK )🌻I’m the founder of Khala KaMwana Childcare Collective (KMCC) — a faith-informed childcare service rooted in empathy, structure, and heart. My academic background is in Justice, Political Philosophy, and Law, but my calling lives at the intersection of childcare, mental health, community, and healing. KMCC was born from a deep desire to offer children the kind of support I wish I had growing up, plus the support I did have growing up. This is the kind of support that sees who they are, not just what they do. A care model that gives them emotional tools, life skills, faith-informed values, and strong foundations before life overwhelms them. And if trauma is already part of their story, we help them process and grow through it with gentleness, not shame.​Although KMCC is inspired by the teachings and compassion of Jesus, I want to be clear: I do not push religious beliefs or practices on any family or child. Faith is offered only when invited. At the core of my care is respect for your child’s background, beliefs, and comfort level. Whether you're faith-based or not, your child will always be welcomed with love, patience, and acceptance.​🧠 My Approach focuses on building:

Emotional intelligence

Healthy routines

Identity and resilience

Gentle discipline through connection, not fear

A sense of safety and self-worth

​

 Whether your child is navigating big feelings, neurodiversity, sensitive behaviors, or simply needs more engagement than typical babysitting provides — they will be seen, supported, and gently guided. And while our name, Khala KaMwana, means “remain a child,” this doesn’t mean stunted growth or avoiding challenges. It means preserving the best parts of childhood — joy, curiosity, softness, safety — and giving children the tools to overcome the worst. These are the tools that carry them into the teenage years and beyond with confidence, clarity, and hope. Because when a child is raised in a nurturing, values-led environment — in collaboration with a caring village — they are more likely to arrive at adulthood resilient, whole, and emotionally well.​

I’ve worked with children from various cultural, behavioral, and ability backgrounds — and I tailor care to meet each child where they are.​💛 Why KMCC Matters to MeThis is more than work — it’s a calling.I’ve lived through trauma. I’ve seen what happens when children grow up without the right support systems.But I’ve also seen what healing, faith, and intentional care can do. I’ve seen how childhood experiences shape entire lives.At KMCC, I care for children the way I believe every child should be cared for — with compassion, structure, empathy, and joy. Whether they stay for a day, a month, or a year — they will leave feeling more confident, more understood, and more whole. This is not a guarantee, but a prayer from my heart to yours.​
