Booked by 6 families in Dacono, CO

Hello, my name is McKinzey and I have about 4.5 years nannying experience, with several years of childcare/babysitting experience as well and I was a preschool teacher for a time. I was also a professional birth and postpartum doula for nearly 6 years where I cared for many infants and toddlers. I will be starting graduate school in the fall to earn my Masters of Library and Information Science with a concentration in youth services, to hopefully one day become a children's librarian. So I would bring my love of reading and life long learning to the role! I would love to share more and answer any of your questions.

“McKinzey was fantastic with our 10-month old! We can’t wait to have her over again!”

I am a 20 yr old gal freshly moved back to the area. I’ve lived in Colorado for about 10 years and am moving back after living in South Dakota for a few years! It feels good to be back and I am looking for work. I have a passion for caregiving of all kinds. So, I offer childcare services, pet sitting, house sitting (plant sitting) and basic chores/errands. Whatever is needed. have experience with kiddos ages 0-5 yrs. I worked at a daycare as a lead teacher for 3 years. Baking, science experiments, outdoor exploration and activities, as well as arts and crafts are my specialty. I can get down with whatever craft activities are being wanted done! If I am mixing child and animal care the price will increase slightly, so just ask if you have any questions:) I love animals of all kinds, cats dogs, farm animals and I have a little experience with reptiles as well. I can walk, play, cuddle and feed your pets however much needed. Sometimes they just need a buddy to hang with and I can do that! I also have experience in professional housekeeping keeping (used to clean out cabins and air bnbs) for a summer and a half, love cleaning very much! I’m very good at following instructions and getting done whatever is needed to the best of my ability. Willing to drive distance as well! I’m a bubbly/shy person who can meet the vibe just about anywhere, so if you’re chatty I will be right there with you, if you’re more low-key then that is totally fine as well. Just let me know!
