Hi! My personal background is a paralegal but before I became a paralegal I was a TK - 5th grade afterschool teacher for 3 years. If you have pets, I can assist too, I have a dog and a serval cats!

I have my own cats, and I grew up with dogs my entire life. I also have had many caretaking jobs for children, mostly around the elementary and middle school age. I also have 5+ years of tutoring and making sure that young children are excelling in whatever they are doing at school. I am kind hearted, caring and love to be around animals.

With over 5 years of hands-on experience working with children ages 5–9, I bring patience, creativity, and fun to every family I support. My background in communication and education allows me to connect with children on an emotional and intellectual level, helping them feel heard, supported, and confident in their abilities. I also can provide tutoring services for those who need it.

My background- I am a mother to two kids. I’ve taken care of 5 kids at one time. When it comes to kids, I am always looking for ways to enhance their learning. I enjoy reading books to the kids, creating new ideas. I cook with love and very much into making the right meals, with cleanings. I am a kind person who enjoys cooking, cleaning with conversation

Hi! My name is McKenna, and I have a strong passion for working with children and supporting families. I worked at Build-A-Bear Workshop for a little under a year, gaining hands-on experience creating fun, engaging, and positive experiences for kids of all ages. I love being a positive role model and bringing a warm, encouraging presence into every environment. I am very energetic and naturally adapt to each child's personality and energy level. Whether that means keeping up with active play or creating calm, structured moments, I can meet kids where they are. I am also very patient, understanding, and attentive, which helps me build trust and strong connections with both children and parents. I have experience working with a wide age range, from 1 to 17-year-olds, and I value open communication with families to ensure the best possible care. I am currently in school studying to become a child therapist, so I am especially passionate about emotional support, development, and helping children feel safe and understood. I am very creative and imaginative, and I love coming up with fun activities, games, and ways to keep kids engaged and happy. I am also more than happy to provide a reference from my time at Build-A-Bear Workshop!
