Hi! My name is Kenzee, I’m 19 years old and a college student going into my sophomore year at McKendree University. I’ve been babysitting since I was 12, so I have several years of experience caring for children of different ages. I’m CPR and First Aid certified and recently renewed both certifications. I’m a college athlete and wrestler, so I’m responsible, active, energetic, and used to being patient and dependable. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids, whether that’s playing, doing crafts, helping with homework, making meals or just hanging out and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m comfortable following parents’ routines and rules and I always want parents to feel confident knowing their kids are safe and having a good time while they’re away. I’m also happy to help with things like light tidying up, meals and bedtime routines. I’m currently available for babysitting and would love the opportunity to meet your family! 😊

I have been caring for children since I was 16 years old. My childcare experience began by assisting my mother with the children she babysat, which helped me develop strong skills in supervision, engagement, and creating a safe environment for children of all ages. I earned a Bachelor's degree in Social Work and a Master's degree in Educational Leadership. Throughout my career, I have worked extensively with children and families in educational and community settings. I previously worked as a Registered Behavior Technician at an autism clinic, providing individualized support to children with autism and helping them develop communication, social, and daily living skills. I have also served as a Mentor Coach, supporting educators and helping improve outcomes for young children in classroom settings. Currently, I work as a Redeploy Program Manager, where I support youth and families by coordinating services, mentoring young people, and helping them achieve positive outcomes. My background in child development, behavior support, education, and social work allows me to provide attentive, compassionate, and dependable care. I am committed to ensuring children feel safe, supported, and engaged while in my care.
