Oakland University

I currently work in the mental health field with my Master's in mental health counseling, and I am looking to babysit on the weekends. I have experience with newborns through teens. I am also a former high school English and Spanish teacher, so I can also provide experienced tutoring services.

Hi there! My name is Mekensie, and I'm soon to be a student in OU's Elementary Education program as of Fall 2019 as I am finishing up my pre-requisites at the local community college. I reside in Clarkston with my parents, two younger siblings, and our wonderful pets. I am employed part-time (Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday mornings) at a local daycare and would love to babysit for families that need after school or weekend/date night care. I have 5 years of childcare experience, with children ranging from 3 months to 13 years. I am a great cook and have no problem preparing healthy meals if requested. I love to do activities that allow the kids to get some exercise, like going for walks or bike rides. I am comfortable with any types of pets as well, as I am also available for pet sitting (3 years experience)

I am a full time Physical Therapy student at Oakland University. I have always had a love for all animals. In my life I have had dogs, cats, fish, and even reptiles. The past few years I have been working part time taking care of dogs and cats while their owners are away on vacation or at work. I have also had experience training numerous dogs in my life. Whatever your needs may be, I am here to help!

I have successfully raised boy/girl twins as a stay at home mom. My children are now juniors in college. My approach is love, discipline, and respect. My children are respected by their teachers, my friends and outside contacts due to the respect they display to us as well as those they meet on a daily basis. I believe in providing a variety of activities so they can find their place and experience a broad range of what this world has to offer. I love children and sharing and helping them grow into caring respectful human beings. Raising twins can be challenging. However, it was and still is the best job I have ever had. I am highly organized in every aspect from feeding infants to maintaining schedules of different activities as they get older to keeping them on track with school requirements and college information. I have a huge heart, a warm pleasant and fun personality. I would love to share my skills with families in need of a nanny.
