Hello! I am friendly, reliable, and punctual. I love working with kids and also pets such as dogs and cats. I have years of experience engaging with little ones while being patient, attentive, and organized. I always ensure your child's safety comes first while also having lots of fun and learning new things. Please reach out if you think I could be a great fit for your family :)

Abby was more than wonderful! We booked her last minute to help support with my nephew. Even with uncertain weather, Abby not only showed up but showed out. She was punctual, dependable and my nephew Kam couldn't wait for her to come back the next day. They did crafts together and we were impressed with the way she maintained routine even though she was new to all instructions. Absolutely recommend Abby!

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!
