A little bit about me
Hi, My name is Mackenzie (Kenzie)! I started working with children when I was around 13 by babysitting my 3 nieces and 2 nephews.
I started working in professional child care 9 years ago. I started working with ages 6 weeks-18 months in a daycare setting and after 5 years, I've had the pleasure to work with ages all the way up to 6 and, on some occasions, school-age children. For the past 4 years, I have been working exclusively as a nanny and enjoy being able to have more one on one time with the children!
I recently had a child of my own! My son is 17 months old. He loves to make friends and will also need to come along with me.
I LOVE pets, outdoor activities, learning games and crafts especially. I have an associates of arts in psychology and am currently working on getting my CPR and First Aid training renewed. I look forward to meeting you and your family!

A little bit about me
I was by unfortunate mishap a teen mom so I know a lot about childcare. At 18 I went to school for in home childcare operation to be a stay at home mom but I end up working in a child care facility instead. I’ve taken care of children from birth to 10 years of age.My mom also had a daycare and fostered kids of whom I assisted.On the weekends I’d keep kids as a side job and as needed for date nights or free time. I like to be active and do hands on activities more so than sitting in front of a t.v. I feel I t’s best to keep the kids on task with their fine and gross motor skills. I stayed up to part with age appropriate curriculums to keep the kids on task during the summer. I’m all for education first and then we can have fun.

A little bit about me
My name is Jesleen , I am currently an undergrad who’s also starting her cleaning business and part time nanny. My goal in life is to benefit my community and make a positive impact in everyone’s life. I’m not a mother but I treat every child like they are, from a very young age I helped my mom with my siblings. That experience helped me learn how to handle kids and their rollercoasters of emotions. In a way that they feel comfortable to express themselves and learn how to process emotions. It also helped me to promote a fun loving environment because core memories as a child will reflect in your growth and relationship with others. You could say acts of service are my love language , serving others makes me feel complete and I think giving kids that level of attention is crucial for them to feel heard and cared for.

A little bit about me
Hi! I’m Maddison!
I’ve been working in childcare full-time since 2019, including time as a Teacher Assistant for kids with autism (ages 5-14). Because of that background, I have a lot of great educational resources I love to share with the families I work with. Currently, I spend my afternoons providing one-on-one care—handling everything from behavioral support and meal prep to light housekeeping and hygiene. I tend to become very close with the families I work for, and I’m really hoping to find that same kind of connection here!
I’m currently in Buffalo but moving down to Florida in the next couple of weeks to be with my mom. I’m a super social, outdoorsy person—I love packing a picnic, going for walks, and just getting out of the house. I’m looking for a great family to become a part of and can’t wait to get to know you guys!
