My name is Katie and I have worked with children my entire life. Growing up, my mother had an in home daycare, I played sports and led kids camps, and after college I was a nanny for 3 years (3yo, 8 yo & 10yo when I started with them in 2015!) for the same family before joining the corporate world. I also assisted a family with their children (2 & newborn) as a personal assistant through the pandemic. I am energetic and friendly, I love the outdoors and am always up for a game of Yahtzee frenzy! One of my best qualities as a caregiver is my ability to keep up with the kids and think of unique activities like building forts and making art projects because my philosophy as a caregiver is to always provide a fun and safe environment for kids where they can truly be themselves and Read more have a great time. I have experience working with children of all ages and even have a niece and nephew of my own that I babysit on occasion.
