A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Kennedy, a 21-year-old student at the University of South Carolina studying to become a Spanish teacher. I have experience babysitting, nannying, lifeguarding, and working as a paraprofessional with students with autism and ARFID.

I’m outgoing, energetic, and love staying active with kids. I’ve played soccer my whole life, including one year at the Division I level, and enjoy bringing that energy into play, learning, and daily routines.

While I love to have fun, I also value structure and consistency. I’m patient, dependable, and focused on creating a safe, supportive environment where kids can thrive. I have previously been CPR certified and understand the importance of safety and communication.
