Hi families! I’m an experienced nanny with 8 years of hands-on childcare experience caring for children of all ages. I’m currently a full-time nursing student working toward Labor & Delivery, so caregiving is truly something I’m passionate about both personally and professionally.Because I’m in school, I’m looking for temporary, part-time, or flexible roles rather than long-term placements — but I’m very dependable and great at adjusting to fast-paced schedules, routines, and changing family needs.I’m CPR certified and partially CNA certified, and I bring a calm, patient, and nurturing energy into every home I work in. My goal is always to create a safe, supportive, and engaging environment for children while giving parents peace of mind. I love being part of a child’s growth and development, even if it’s for a season!

Hi! I’m Kenzie and I have been babysitting since I was 13. I have lots of references if that is something that would make you feel more comfortable. Feel free to ask! I have experience with newborns all the way up to children of 12 years old. I also have experience with special needs children and love children of all abilities. I also do a lot of petsitting so having pets in the home, or needing me to also care for your pets is not a problem for me. I have always had a strong passion for working with kids and animals. Besides babysitting, I currently work at a vet clinic as a vet assistant and I am currently in college for animal behavior with hopes of graduating with my bachelor’s degree and then heading to vet school! In my free time I enjoy spending time with my pets, watching football, playing basketball, and doing crafts.
