Meet Mckenzie

  • Comfortable with pets

I have a strong background in working with children, shaped by my time at Ramapo Camp for Children, where I had the privilege of supporting youth with special needs. This experience taught me patience, empathy, and the importance of creating a nurturing and empowering environment for every child. I am deeply passionate about working with young people and love encouraging them to dream big while helping them realize that with determination and hard work, they can achieve anything they set their minds to. Additionally, I have extensive experience teaching English to learners of all ages. Teaching has been an unexpected yet deeply rewarding journey for me, and I take pride in connecting with students, fostering their confidence, and guiding their growth. I firmly believe that youth hold the key to the future, and I am committed to inspiring and supporting them every step of the way.

We honestly didn’t think we’d be able to ski on this trip because we were so hesitant about leaving our two-year-old with someone we didn’t know. From the moment we met McKenzie, that completely changed. She made us feel comfortable right away; calm, attentive, and incredibly in tune with our daughter. What really stood out is her background working with children with special needs and as a teacher. You can feel that experience in the way she approaches childcare. Our daughter can get overstimulated easily, and in the past, some babysitters haven’t picked up on that. McKenzie was the opposite; she gave her space, followed her lead, and responded to what she needed in the moment instead of forcing interaction. It made such a difference. Beyond that, she truly went above and beyond anything we expected. On one of the days, I was sick and stayed back, and she not only took care of our daughter but also cleaned, cooked, and even made me soup. That level of care and thoughtfulness is rare. We felt completely at ease leaving our daughter with her, which allowed us to actually enjoy our trip. I can’t recommend McKenzie enough; she’s not just a babysitter, she’s someone who genuinely cares.
