Mackenzie $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi – My name is Mackenzie and I’m a recent college graduate living in Atlanta. I’m offering child care, senior care, pet care, and household services. I love being a babysitter and have experience caring for infants, toddlers, school-age kids, and teens. My responsibilities have included school pickups/drop-offs, homework help, creative play, bedtime routines, and keeping kids safe, happy, and engaged. I have experience supporting older adults and am comfortable with senior care tasks such as companionship, cooking, transportation to appointments, and general daily support. I’m also great with pets and happy to help with feeding, walking, and sitting for both dogs and cats. I’m reliable, warm, and patient — and I take pride in being someone families can trust and depend on.
