Hi! My name is Makena :) I am 24 years old, I have worked as a babysitter/nanny since I was 16. I have cared for children of all ages, from newborn to early teenagers. My longest babysitting gig lasted a few years with a family with 5 children, including two sets of twins! I recently graduated college and I am looking for some extra income while I study for medical school, I figured getting back into babysitting would be perfect for me. I love working with children, and I want to continue to do so as I pursue medicine. I would love to help your kids with their homework, do arts and crafts, and play outside!
