A little bit about me

I am 22 years old and a first time mom. I have been watching kids since I was 15 years old. I have watched children from 2 days old - 12 years old. Ideally I am looking for a family to nanny for that is welcoming to both me and my son.. I have my CPR First Aid and I have my CBR. I took early childhood development in high school and I am planning on pursuing my interests with college classes as well. I am very loving and fun to be around. I love one on one time with kids as it gives us the chance to learn who they are as an individual. If you have anymore questions please feel free to reach out.

"Makenna was very hands on with my 3 children! She watched my two little boys and once I had my daughter she watch her as early as 2 weeks old! I didn’t ask much of her. I asked that she care and provide for my children. That she was active with them. Not only did she do excellent in providing care and love for my children but she went above and beyond. On days I worked late she made dinner for not only my children but myself and my fiancé. She also always kept the house clean (which we did not ask her to do but much appreciated since we both worked 50-60 hour work weeks!) She showed my kids nothing but love like she was part of our family!"

Im interested in being a nanny because I want to continue to grow and learn in this career field, I want to find the right spot for myself in childcare.
