Hi! My name is MacKenzie Scharf and I am a freshman at The University of Illinois and my major is special education! I have been working with kids since I could remember, I've always had an interest and a special bond with them. I have a lot of patience and I'm also very creative! I've worked as a nanny the past 3 summers and I've loved every family. The ages have ranged from 2-12, I also have baby cousins so I have worked with infants too! Working with kids is something I am very passionate about, so I do take my job very seriously! I have my own car, so taking to and from places isn't a problem for me.
