Meet Makenna

Hello, my name is Makenna, but you can call me Kenna! I am currently seeking babysitting gigs. I currently work at Crossroads Kids Early Learning Center in Norwalk in the 2 year old room, and I had previously been in the 1 year old room. I have two dogs and a cat of my own that I treat as my own kids. I also have spent lots of time with children in my family, including a child with autism. I worked as a CNA for a year at Methodist Downtown, working with anyone from 20-90 years old. As a CNA, I did bed baths, changed linens, took vitals, and fed patients. In my daycare teacher setting, I change diapers and potty train children, teach basic skills such as the alphabet, numbers, and colors, play with children outside, and put together curriculum and activities for the kids. I have a 2017 Read more ford fusion for transportation and a drivers license. I am CPR certified and am still have my CNA. If possible, I am looking for weekday evening gigs and some weekends as well!
