Hello families! I am a junior at App State with a degree in psychology and minors in child development and special education. I love to work with and help kids of all ages to have fun and play safely! I have babysat for 7 years and have had multiple jobs at summer camps working with individuals both on and off the spectrum. I also have CPR and First Aid training for adults and children.

I have been a full time nanny to three wonderful children ages 7-11 for the past 4 years. I have casually babysat for younger children (2-5), including ones with special needs like autism and ADHD. I also have experience as a waitress, host, barista, and pet sitter! I am usually described as a very outgoing and friendly person who goes with the flow. I love meeting new people and experiencing different things everyday. My passion is teaching and taking care of children, and I love to create personal relationships and explore their interests! I also enjoy animals, especially dogs and cats. I have one golden doodle dog and a short haired blonde cat at home :) Please let me know if you have any further questions about me, I’d love to chat. Thank you!

Hi everyone! My name is Kendra and I am a Biology graduate student and lab instructor at Appalachian State University! I am completing my master’s degree in the spring (May), also teach general biology classes, and I am looking for a nanny job shortly before/after my graduation! I have 2-3 years of babysitting experience, 10 years pet sitting experience. My rate may be higher than some folks to compensate for my education! I (nearly) have a master’s degree in biology, as well as a BS, and a minor in psychology. I have research experience in both areas that give me extensive knowledge on health, first aid, safety procedures, education, phenomenal homework help for all ages, conflict resolution, teaching skills, and and many other skills that make me the perfect, safest person to trust with your little ones! The reason I am looking to be a nanny, is as mentioned above I do biology research and after completing my master’s degree, I plan on going to PhD school to pursue STEM education as I am incredibly passionate about getting young kids excited about science and math! If any of this sounds interesting to you, I’d love to speak with you and answer and questions you may have! I look forward to hearing from you!
