Hi! My name is Kiana and I am offering childcare, errands, pet care, and house sitting. I have 5 years of experience working with small children in various capacities. I am neat, clean and organized. I have experience caring for infants including new borns, and young children in daycare, middle school children at the Boys and Girls Club, Free Arts for Kids, and Crossroads for Kids. I also have experience working with people who have disabilities. Additionally, I have a background in Theatre and an MA in pedagogy from NYU. I am CPR Certified and have a reliable car. I am also open to discussing other services. Thanks!
“Kiana was the best! I won’t recommend her to anyone else, but that’s because I want her to ourselves 😅 lol JK. Absolutely would recommend her to anyone with small children. She was amazing with our zoo of 4 young ones. You would’ve thought she was part of the family after 15 minutes at the house. She was extremely responsive before and during our time together, and she was even flexible with our schedule for the night when plans changed. Can’t say enough good about her. I’m an extremely watchful and protective father and I never felt for a second that the kids weren’t good with her, and I can’t explain how valuable that is to me 🙏🏽 ♥️ Will 100% use her again, as long as we didn’t scare her off 😅”

Booked by 1 family in Wendell, NC
Hi! My name is McKenzie, and I'm 19-year-old caregiver based in Clayton, NC. I have over 5 years of experience working with children, including for the past two years working part-time at a daycare, where most of my time was spent caring for 6 week olds to 1 year olds. I have found the infants and ones are my favorite age to care for. Before that, I volunteered at the same daycare for 3 years and worked with children from infants to 5 years old, gaining hands on experience with children of different ages. I am CPR and First Aid certified for pediatric and adults, hold SIDS certification, and completed a year long internship at an elementary school, where I created lesson plans, supported classroom activities, and worked closely with students and teachers in a kindergarten classroom. I'm currently in college working toward becoming a Child Life Specialist, and I'm very passionate about creating a safe nurturing and engaging environment for children. I am patient, dependable and attentive with a love for caring for children. I would love the opportunity to support your family and provide reliable, compassionate care for your children!
“McKenzie was fantastic watching our little one. She’s so caring and our little one loves her. We wouldn’t hesitate to work with McKenzie again in the future! ”
