A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Kendra, and I come from a big family — I’m the oldest of five siblings, so caring for children has always been a big part of my life. I’ve helped nanny for my mom, family friends, and children ranging from newborns to 6 years old. I also still help care for my 8-year-old little brother regularly.

I’m a high school graduate and currently work as a Patient Safety Assistant at Cox Hospital, which has helped me become very patient, responsible, and attentive. I’m currently working toward attending esthetician school, so I’m looking for a nanny position with a more flexible schedule.

I truly enjoy being around children and creating a safe, caring, and fun environment for them. I’m dependable, nurturing, and comfortable with children of different ages and personalities.
