My name is McKenna and I'm an educator and childcare provider with 12 years experience. I have received two Bachelors degrees, in Human Development and Family Sciences and in Education, and have an Oregon teaching license with special education and English as second language endorsements. Additionally, I am certified at step 10 (of 12) on the Oregon childcare online registry. For the last 6 years, I have taught high school special education. I am CPR and First Aid certified (children and adults), hold a valid drivers license, own a safe reliable car and have a clean driving record. Others would describe me as patient, nurturing and versed in age appropriate activities. I have many references for past employers and families that I have cared for their children. Now that I am a mom to my daughter, I'm looking for childcare career opportunities that allow me to care for another family, alongside my own 18-month-old daughter.

I’m thrilled to share that McKenna has been an exceptional caregiver for my preemie son since birth, exceeding all expectations with her attention to detail and dedication. From the start, McKenna has shown remarkable care and professionalism, meeting my son's specific needs with precision and compassion. Her impeccable adherence to his routines has made me feel confident and secure leaving him in her care. McKenna's attentiveness is unparalleled. Even when managing multiple children at once, she remains focused and engaged, ensuring that each child receives the attention and care they need. Her ability to balance the needs of various children while maintaining a high standard of care is nothing short of impressive. Reliability is another area where McKenna shines. She is always punctual and dependable, and her flexibility in accommodating changes in schedule or unexpected needs has been a huge relief for our family. Her communication skills are equally commendable—she keeps me informed before, during, and after each caregiving session, which fosters a sense of trust and transparency. In every interaction with McKenna, I have felt assured and at ease. Her professionalism, combined with her genuine love and dedication to her work, has made her an invaluable part of our lives. I wholeheartedly recommend McKenna to anyone seeking a caregiver who is not only skilled but also deeply committed to providing the best care possible. She has truly become an integral part of our family, and we are incredibly grateful for her presence in our lives.
