Hi, im Kathryn! I’m 26 and currently in school for sports therapy! I have no experience in paid childcare, however I watched my mother run a licensed daycare for many years during my childhood, and as I got older I would help my mom with the kids! While I have no paid childcare experience I certainly have childcare experience. As hard to believe as it is I have 24 nieces and nephews that I have been a free babysitter to for years. That actually is what brought me here, the kids have gotten older and I realized I miss my days making lunches and watching movies and just watching the kids enjoy growing up! I thought with the way the world is today work and children, as much as we love them, can be exhausting! I would love to be able to help elevate some of that stress. With that Read more being said I do not mind doing housework and cooking as long as you let me know what you would like to be done while I’m there! I have a reliable and safe vehicle that can safely seat 3 children and one older child in the front seat. I do not mind helping with drop offs and pick ups again please just let me know if the times so I can have them there or be there on time! I love animals so pets will not be an issue if you do have them! My schedule is flexible and I can travel to you if need be! Please feel free to reach out if you have any other questions for me!(:
