Makenzie $18 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name’s Makenzie, I’m 21 years old and I absolutely love working with kids. Over the past three years, I have worked with two different families that each had two children under 4 years old. Both of which have given me the ability to understand early childhood development and manage multiple children at once while still providing care and attention to each child. Outside of work, I enjoy camping, traveling, fishing, serving in church and spending time with family. Building a strong bond with not only your kids but the whole family is so important to me! I have a big heart for animals as well so if you have pets, that’s a bonus for me! I am CPR certified and I do have my own vehicle. If you have any more questions feel free to ask. Thank you!
