With several plus years of hands-on experience in childcare, I bring a nurturing, responsible, and energetic presence to every family I work with. I’ve cared for children of all ages—from infants to school-aged—adapting to each child’s unique personality, developmental stage, and needs. My approach focuses on creating a safe, engaging, and loving environment where children can thrive emotionally, socially, and intellectually. I’m skilled in daily routines including feeding, diapering, naptime, and bedtime, as well as organizing age-appropriate activities like arts and crafts, educational games, outdoor play, and reading time. I also support homework help and encourage positive behavior through gentle guidance and consistent routines. Parents trust me not only for my reliability and attention to detail, but also for my genuine love for children and ability to bond with them quickly. Whether it’s managing busy household schedules, handling unexpected situations with calmness, or simply providing a comforting presence, I am committed to supporting families with professionalism and care. I am currently enrolled as a college student, balancing my academic goals with my passion for childcare. I am also in the process of completing my CPR and First Aid certification to ensure even greater peace of mind for the families I work with.

Kennesha $19 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Kennesha. With over 10 years of dedicated experience caring for others, I bring a unique blend of professionalism, patience, and heartfelt commitment to childcare. My journey began in adult care, which deepened my compassion and understanding for individuals at all stages of life, and naturally extended to nurturing children. I have hands-on experience with every age group, from delicate infants to energetic school-age children. This has taught me the importance of adapting to each child's individual needs, fostering a safe environment for exploration, and supporting developmental milestones through engaging play and learning activities. Currently, I provide childcare out of my loving home. This setting allows me to offer a cozy, secure, and family-oriented atmosphere where your child will feel right at home. As a grandparent myself, I am also happily caring for my grandchildren, which means your little one will have the opportunity for positive social interaction in a small, familial group. My Credentials & Approach: · 10+ Years of combined experience in childcare and adult care. · Certified in First Aid and CPR, ensuring your child's safety is my top priority. · A holistic focus on emotional well-being, respectful communication, and age-appropriate activities. · A safe, clean, and child-proofed home environment designed for play and growth. I believe in partnering with parents to provide consistent, reliable, and nurturing care. I understand the trust you place in a caregiver, and I am committed to offering peace of mind while your child is in my care. I would love to connect to discuss how I can support your family's needs!
