A little bit about me
Hi! My name is MacKenzie and I am 19 year old college senior pursuing a bachelor of science in psychology with a minor in chemistry. I graduated high school in 2020 at 16 years old studying aerospace technology/engineering at Fairchild Wheeler Magnet HS. I’ve recently transferred from Penn State University to Salem College, in Winston-Salem, NC where I currently reside. I have 3 years of child care experience with ages ranging from 2-9 years old. I am passionate about child psychology and the overarching field of neuroscience. I look forward to conducting graduate research following my completion of my undergraduate degree in the spring of 2024. I am fluent in English and quite proficient in Spanish, as I do enjoy tutoring college students and children alike to improve their comprehension of cognizance between the Romance languages. I love to travel, create art, and study science. It would be ideal to work with a family of children of whom I could share those passions with!

A little bit about me
I'm a childcare provider with 7+ years of experience, a passion for nurturing young minds, and a commitment to providing a safe, nurturing environment where children can thrive. I worked at Malcom X elementary school for about 2. 5 years as an after school leader. I worked in elderly care for 3 years, I've been my family's babysitter for so many years. I have a big family so theirs always babysitting that's needed & I love it.
My journey in childcare began when I discovered my talent for caring for children during my previous babysitting jobs. I love cooking health conscious meals as well if needed!
I believe that open and honest communication is key to a successful childcare partnership, so I make sure to keep parents updated on their child's day through written daily reports and regular updates via text or phone call, whichever the parent prefers. I follow the parents' lead when it comes to enforcing household rules, ensuring that the children in my care are safe and well-behaved
