Nanny Jordyn

< 1 year experience

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Jordyn, and I’m an experienced childcare provider with a strong background in working with children ages 6–16 through my roles as a gymnastics instructor and youth mentor. I’m comfortable with routines, and happy to help with homework, light cleaning, meals, and transportation! I recently moved to Alabama so I could pursue my education at the University of Alabama. I’m currently attending Shelton State Community College as I work toward transferring to UA in Fall 2026 to study Political Science.

A little bit about me

Hey ya'll, I’m Kenzie!
I’m a social work student at The University of Alabama, graduating in December 2026 with my Bachelor’s in Social Work and a minor in Public Policy. I currently work part time with make a wish foundation.

I have over two years of experience as a nanny and also worked as a camp counselor for ages 6–12. I also volunteered with Arts ‘n Autism in Northport, where I help kids express themselves and build confidence through art.

Outside of childcare, I love to bake, cook, and make things from scratch — from homemade vanilla extract to sugar scrubs and blankets. I became wheelchair-dependent my freshman year of college, which has strengthened my adaptability, empathy, and appreciation for creating inclusive environments.

I live independently in Tuscaloosa and would love the opportunity to bring that same care, creativity, and warmth to your family.
