Hi there! I’m Mckenna , and I recently relocated to the Denver area after graduating from the University of Kentucky (Go Cats!). Originally from Cincinnati, Ohio, I grew up babysitting my younger sister and the children of close family friends, and I continued nannying throughout college. With experience caring for kids of all ages, I genuinely enjoy spending time with them and finding fun, engaging activities to do together. I'm flexible with hours and happy to help with transportation when needed. I look forward to connecting and learning more about your family!

Jenny 1 review
$25 per hour for 1 child
Booked by 1 family in Golden, CO

We have hired Jenny several times now and each time she is responsive, reliable, eager to learn about our kids (ages 8 & 9), and find ways to connect with them. She is easy going, willing to meet the needs we express or go with the flow when we don't have much specific instructions. We feel at ease when we are away and our boys are really enjoying getting to know her and they really appreciate having someone play the active stuff they like to do.
