Ja’Siah’s Young Mom: Lawaine Young
It was Ja’Siah Young’s mother, Lawaine Young, who encouraged him to pursue acting. Not surprisingly, she was the one who brought the young actor to auditions and shooting.
But considering her occupation as an acting consultant and coach, it’s no surprise that her son is an actor. “I’m going to teach you the ins and outs of child acting and how to start a business,” Lawaine said on his Linkedin.
Since 2022, he has been operating out of his namesake company, Lawaine Young Consulting and Coaching, which opened in March 2020.
Additionally, Lawaine later worked as a Production Technician at Nestlé Waters for almost 3 years.
Prior to that, Ja’Siah’s mother was a property manager, generating monthly invoices, reviewing properties, and representing clients at Big Mom Inc from March 2016 to March 2017.
She also once took a job as a recruiter at Berks and Beyond Employment for 7 months.
His first job in life was as an officer at the Northampton County Jail from June 2013 to September 2015.
Talking about his education, he received his Master of Business Administration and Bachelor of Arts and Criminal Law from Salem International University in 2014 and 2012 respectively.
Lawaine, a native of Easton, Pennsylvania, celebrates her birthday on July 18 and is very supportive of her son’s career. Right before the second season of Raising Dion, Lawaine took to IG to promote the Netflix series. One of them wrote: “WE ELEVATE DION STREAMING ON NETFLIX RIGHT NOW!!”
Here is his Instagram @lawaineyoung, Facebook @lawaine.young and Youtube @Lawaine Young *MY FAVORITE HOLLYWOOD.

Ja’Siah Young’s father hasn’t been in the spotlight since 2022. Also, he didn’t seem to be on Ja’Siah’s IG @jasiahyoungofficial or his mother’s IG.
However, while we don’t have information about Ja’Siah’s father, we do know that her mother has been in a relationship since 2022.
According to Lawaine’s FB, she was into both men and women.
His definition of “good” included men with chiseled bodies, various tattoos, and beautiful smiles. He can also find some examples of “nice” men above his IG if he digs deeper.
All Lawaine wants is a happy family, one with dad, mom and children. She said that her “ultimate goal” is to marry and have beautiful children with the other half of her.
Also, Lawaine has strong advice on how men should treat women. She shared: “Everyone should talk to their girlfriend like Derek Morgan talks to Penelope Garcia.”
Didn’t get a referral? Well, Derek Morgan and Penelope Garcia shared amazing chemistry on Criminal Minds.

Yes, Ja’Siah Young has a brother named Jesten Nyla.
His sister Jesten is six years younger than him and is already dabbling in the world of acting. “I’m Tiny DIVA,” wrote her IG @jestennyla.
Unfortunately, this little diva got so sick in December 2019 that she had to be admitted to the hospital. And like any doting brother of hers would, Ja’Siah took to the IG video of her to ask her followers for prayers and wish her a speedy recovery.
“I just wanted to ask when you have a free minute please pray for my little sister Jesten aka Jessie she is in the hospital and I pray she gets better soon,” he wrote in the post.
Coincidentally, Ja’Siah and her sister celebrate their birthdays in the same month, which is August: Ja’Siah on the 9th and Jesten on the 27th.
On Ja’Siah’s 8th birthday, his mother took him to her IG to write, “I will do everything I can to uplift your right and allow you to grow and learn and be who you are and share your pure love and joy with the world.” ! !”
