Hi! I'm a caregiver with over 10 years of experience caring for kids from infancy through middle school age, and over 10 years of experience caring for seniors as well. I'm also CPR certified, and I've spent 5+ years pet sitting and boarding cats and dogs. I'm warm, observant, and consistent — the people (and pets!) in my care feel comfortable with me quickly, and clients can count on me to stick to routines, follow instructions closely, and pay close attention to each individual's needs. Whether it's soothing an infant, keeping a senior company, or walking a dog, I bring the same level of care every time. I'd love to help support your family. Feel free to reach out with any questions!
Hi there! 👋 I have extensive childcare experience and absolutely love working with kids of all ages. For 7 years, I was a full-time nanny for a wonderful family with four children, which gave me hands-on experience balancing different ages, schedules, and personalities all at once. I pride myself on being reliable, patient, and fun while also keeping things safe and structured. Whether it’s helping with homework, organizing creative activities, or making sure bedtime runs smoothly, I truly enjoy supporting families and creating a positive environment for children to thrive.
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!
AAS Degree Early Childhood Development, 10+ yrs Preschool Teacher, raised 3 children of my own 19yr old girl, 15yr old girl, and 13yr old boy, I also am a Lifer Auntie of over 20plus niece and nephews, and great niece and nephews. Not a grandma yet but I love doing art activities and crafts, playing games, doing puzzles and knowing how to respond in a emergency because I have 20plus years of CPR and First Aid training.
I have 5+ years of experience in early childhood care, specializing in infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. As a mom of two and an education student, I believe in gentle parenting and creating safe, connected spaces where children thrive. I'm skilled in managing multiple kids at once while ensuring their individual needs and safety are always met.
