A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Makenzie, and I have over five years of experience working with children and their families.

I have a Diploma in Preschool Education as well as three semesters of Early Childhood Education coursework, which has given me additional knowledge of child development, age-appropriate activities, routines, and ways to support children through the different stages of their early years.

I want parents to feel comfortable knowing their children are with someone who will care for them, keep them safe, and make their time together enjoyable.

It's incredibly rewarding to watch them learn new things, gain confidence, reach milestones, and get excited about the little things. I especially enjoy creating activities, playing outside, doing crafts, reading, and finding fun ways to keep children engaged rather than simply keeping them occupied.

In my spare time, I enjoy photography, boating, camping, going to church, spending time outdoors, and being with my friends and family.

A little bit about me

I worked with adults with disabilities for 28 years and loved the work there. I just retired and am looking for some part-time work. This job really interests me.
I have done several different types of work throughout my life. I babysit for several different families with ages 6mths to 14 years. I worked in a sewing factory for a few years. Then I worked at a bakery making breads, donuts and what ever else I could do.
I worked at the Campbell's soup company for about 3 years and there I would remove the meat from the bones and I done this for 3 years. I then went to work at the local nursing home and I done laundry, Housekeeping and then I was cook for 10 years of service there after being with them for 13 years.
I then found my last job before retirement with Region V in Auburn. Here I worked with adults with disabilities and I done all things regarding everyday life skills and I spent the night at their house 4 nights a week. I was responsible for every day life skills.
