Hey! So you’ve found yourself needing a reliable babysitter and you want to make sure you pick the perfect person for you and your family. Let me introduce myself, my name is Katy, I am 39 years old and a mama to my sweet 10 year old boy in heaven. I am a Georgia native and currently work full time as an EMT, which means when it comes to disabilities, allergies or any sort of health concern, you can feel comfortable in knowing that I am very well prepared to handle any situation that arises. Not only am I an EMT, I am a certified CPR instructor, I have my BLS healthcare provider certification, my Pediatric Advanced Life Support Certification and I am also a Certified Child Passenger Safety Specialist. As a babysitter, I want you to feel comfortable know your children are receiving the best care possible. With 20+ Read more years of experience as a babysitter/nanny I have had the opportunity to care for children or all ages and abilities, including multiples. I love teaching and assisting children in growing and learning, I believe play should be fun and sometimes even messy. I enjoy being outdoors and exploring new places. I have been very successful with helping families to build schedules and routines that allow for flow and consistency in the home. I truly hope this gives you an idea of who I am. I am an open book and always willing to answer any questions you may have.
