Hello, my name is Mackenzie Lippincott-Emhoff. I am going to be a junior at Palomar college. I have four years of babysitting experience. I babysat for a life group where we played, had snack, and did arts and crafts with the children. I was CPR certified but I will have to reapply since my certificate is expired. I have my own car so transportation will not be an issue. I am very loving and passionate. I would be happy to provide references as well as meet or chat on the phone. I look forward to hearing from you!
