Adult and pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED certified 🩹Hello, I’m Genevieve! I have worked with children of all ages (from newborns to middle schoolers) off and on for most of my life — starting with volunteering in church nurseries, then occasional babysitting, several years working at childcare centers, part-time nannying, and finally as a Wyndy beginning in 2022 when I was a grad school student. I loved it so much I decided to keep my profile active beyond graduation. I look forward to meeting your family!!

I’m a college nursing student going into pediatrics. I became a licensed CNA in high school and went on to work in East Tennessee Children’s Hospital NICU and a pediatric urgent care. I went into childcare for 3 years and worked with ages 6 weeks- 5 years old but earned my own classroom of 1 year-olds. I loved my time with them but was called to return to the medical field where I now work as a medical assistant.I have worked with many types of children with a broad range of personalities and needs. Each child is different, and I’ve learned through my experiences ways to connect with each.
