A little bit about me

I'm a creative educator, business owner (photography), avid lover of nature/painting/reading/being with those I love. Music is also a huge part of my life; going to concerts brings me a lot of joy. I am 33 years old and have spent the past 17 years in education, specifically specializing in infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. For the last year I have been working in a middle school special education department. I'm also enrolled in classes at Massasoit because I believe learning is a huge part of life.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I have been caring for children from a very young age, however professionally I have been working with kids since I was 19.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love reading, drawing, dancing, and being outside is huge for me. I love doing hands-on activities and would prefer to either limit or stay away from technology/television. I love crafting, walking, water play during warmer months, making obstacle courses, using chalk / bubbles. I don't mind using basketballs, baseballs, etc and I don't shy away from bikes or roller blades etc. I'm basically a big kid in a grown ups body!

The most important part about being a nanny...

setting and establishing a clear role as a member of the village that is helping to raise your baby/babies. Role modeling the importance of connection, community, and collaboration within families, supporting mothers, and re-writing the narrative surrounding child care are all important to me as well.

My experience with special needs children...

My experience with special needs children began in August of 2025. My knowledge continues to grow the more I spend time in a special education classroom. Right now my experience is mainly with middle school age children (9 yo to 13 yo)

The most important part about being a nanny...

I have different favorite moments with every family I've worked with. I would love to discuss this more during an interview!

Makenzie C. - Seeking Work in Lakeville

Babysitter Available in Lakeville, MA: Makenzie C.

I'm a 17 year old female and I just graduated high school. I love working with little kids, depending on the weather I try to keep them playing outside as much as possible. I keep screens away from the kids and I am more than happy to help them with school work as well. I am planning on doing online college in the fall of 2026 for elementary education and plan on getting a degree and becoming a 1st grade teacher or being a para with students that have special needs. I am comfortable with contact naps as I have a baby cousin who only co-sleeps, and I tend to come over and nap with him so my aunt can get work done. I'm comfortable with any pets! I am very flexible.
