About Mackenzie
Experience: 10 yrs
Hi everyone! I was born and raised in Bend and am returning to my roots after a 10-year break. I have nearly 20 years of experience in early childhood education, covering everything from daycares and preschools to summer camps and private nannying. For the past 4 years, I've run my own nature-based early learning program, influenced by Waldorf and Reggio pedagogy. I'm passionate about getting kids outdoors, promoting social-emotional learning, and ensuring both children and caregivers practice nervous system regulation. Above all, I believe in providing hands-on, experiential learning for kids. In my free time, I enjoy exploring the mountains and forests with my dog Magnolia, cooking nutritious meals, making herbal medicine, practicing yoga, playing guitar, and crafting. I'm looking for a part-time nanny position, flexible date night babysitting, as well as petsitting and housesitting opportunities.

Mackenzie is caring for our nearly one year old son. She is wonderful with our son. She is timely and responsible and we feel very comfortable with her. She is often with him in the evenings and feeds him dinner, bathes him and puts him to bed. She also has done some light housekeeping for us and does a stellar job with that as well. We highly recommend Mackenzie (though hope that she works for us often enough that she doesn't have much time to work with many other children ;-)). Mackenzie is also a dedicated college student and we sincerely hope that her school schedule will continue to work with our childcare needs so that we can use her for the entire school year.
