I am interested in taking care of children, to make them laugh and feel comfortable. I want to see them learn new skills and values throughout my time there while also having fun. A goal of mine is to provide the parents the peace of mind that their children are safe and happy at their home with their babysitter while they cannot be present at the moment. I want to provide an environment for the children in which they feel comfortable, content and also where they are ready to have a good time. I love to see a child laughing and exploring their imaginations. I am very patient and I try to have a positive attitude at all times. I love to watch Disney movies, to play board games and do arts & crafts with the children. I have a degree in Fine Arts as well as Photography so I am very creative and I love to create activities for the children to participate in. I have babysat a wide range of children(6 months to 13 years) starting when I was just 12.

If you want to save a minute - stop reading here and just hire Kendra. Kendra was with our family for over three years and truly became part of the family. She took excellent care of my kids and during that time ranged from newborn to 6 years old. Always on time, dependable, engaging with the kids - outside when possible and inside with engaging crafts or sensory activities. She always found local activities to do from the library, art classes and local farms and playgrounds. Excellent communicator and as an added perk you’ll get great photos of the kids and see their day to day happiness. Kendra was with us through my third pregnancy and birth of my son and is extremely knowledgeable of newborn care and requirements. She also administered asthma care of breathing treatments and managed food allergies for my youngest. If Kendra was able to move to CA she’d be with our family forever!
