A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Kennedy! I’m an outgoing person that loves being able to play a part in taking care of children as well as helping to nourish children’s minds to keep them learning and growing. I love being outdoors doing any activity like hiking, roller skating, biking, and more. I am active in yoga and love creating via any form of art.

I have previous experience working as a nanny for one family for four years. It was a beautiful experience to grow and learn with the family, and I would love that back in my life again :)

I am capable of cooking healthy foods, and I also enjoy cleaning.

A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Malelega Bartley, I am currently residing in Minnieapolis, MN. I am currently offering any infant or child care.
I love being a babysitter and have been watching infants since I was 11 years old! I was my family’s babysitter until I got older and began babysitting as a part-time job when I was enrolled in school. I am blessed to have this natural care giver instinct and I use it to my advantage. Some of my responsibilities have been putting baby to sleep, educating and engaging, feeding them, taking them a bathe, tummy time, and prepping baby food.
A little background about me is that I am a sibling of 9 kids so growing up I learned at a very young age to take care of not only myself but as well as my siblings. Hobbies I enjoy doing would be volleyball, baking, hiking, working out, writing poetry, watch Disney movies, or listen to music. I am also pet friendly, look forward to working with you. Take care and have a blessed day!

A little bit about me

I have hands-on childcare experience from regularly taking care of my younger siblings. This included preparing meals, helping with homework, managing daily routines, resolving conflicts, and ensuring their safety and well-being. I developed strong time management, patience, and problem-solving skills while creating a nurturing and structured environment. Although it was not in a formal childcare setting, this experience taught me responsibility, multitasking, and how to respond calmly under pressure—skills that directly apply to any childcare or customer-focused role.”
