Hello, my name is Kenzie and I am a law student in my final year of school. Growing up in Utah and as the eldest in a big family, I grew up around kids and grew up babysitting often. I love being a babysitter and have been watching newborns, infants, toddlers, and kids since I was 12 years old. I am 12 and 14 years apart from my youngest siblings and helped raise them since they were newborns. In college at the University of Utah, I tutored kids from Korea in English, where I enjoyed making assignments, homework, and developing unique ways of teaching to fit their learning style. In my free time outside of school, I enjoy reading, knitting, cooking, and hanging out with friends.
I have over 25 years of experience working with children in various settings from training adults who serve children birth to 3, to being a nanny caring for four children. Currently, and for past five years, I have been working with middle school children with special needs specifically, Autism. I have extensive experience with children birth-3 and significant experience with ADHD and behaviors. I'm a few courses shy of my Bachelors degree in Early Childhood Education and have significant amounts of training in various areas in education. I took a break from school to support my stepson who struggled in school. I value all children and their abilities. I enjoy working with children and believe all children should be encouraged to be kind, good, human beings and I believe we, as adults working with children are integral in making that happen.
Hello, my name is Tracy. I am a widowed empty nester looking to fill my free time. I raised two wonderful children, one of them was special needs who has since passed. I was a stay at home mom for many years until my husband passed. I used to watch children in my home for many years and miss having them around. I have been taking care of children since I was 10 years old whether it was for neighbors, my parents friends kids or my sister. I have lots of patience and love to teach kids new things like crocheting, arts and crafting. I'm good at helping with homework too! My daughter was multiple handicapped and needed help in all areas of daily living. If you have a special needs child I understand the need for you to get some ME time! Unfortunately, I am allergic to cats but dogs and other animals are fine with me. I stay home most weekends so if you're looking for a weekend getaway I would be happy to help. I am available during the week during the evenings after 4:00 and all day/night on most weekends.

I’m excited to bring my nurturing personality, responsibility, and love for working with youth to your family!👩🏽⚕️🧸♥️
