About Makenzie

Experience: 7 yrs

Hi! My name is Kenzie and I am a former preschool teacher in Long Beach with a bachelor's degree in Child Development and over six years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages. I previously taught transitional kindergarten at a Reggio-inspired, play-based school and am CPR and first aid certified. I have also earned my California teaching credential for grades K-3. I specialize in phonics, early literacy, and supporting developmental milestones through engaging, child-led activities. I am currently looking for something full time and am available to help with childcare, homework, errands, or bedtime routines. I bring patience, creativity, and a deep understanding of child behavior to every family I support. I look forward to talking!

I kind of wish that I could publicly post my phone number here so that you could call me and I could personally answer any questions you might have. I could write a literal novel about my experience with hiring a nanny for the first time, having someone new in my home, and letting go of control to allow her to tackle the things we desperately needed help with. But I'll spare you. In our house, Makenzie is simply Kenzie. She tackles the chaos. She smiles in situations that make me want to rip my hair out. She is reliable, responsible, and I trust her with the most important people in my life. Kenzie is part of our family, and I very truly believe that anyone who hires her is a lucky person! She can handle anything you throw at her. She will make your household run more efficiently, and I probably can't make claims like this, but I am certain she can raise any child's reading level. One million stars for Kenzie.
