Katie’s Bio
Hi there! I was born a natural caregiver. Office jobs are not for me; I need to be actively making a difference in the lives of others. I suppose it may be genetic as my mother is a social worker. I have years of human service exprerience working directly with children AND adults/elderly with a range of physical or intellectual disabilities and/or mental illness, as well as managerial positions in the field. I've completed Medication Manager, Mandatory Reporter, CPR and First Aid in my previous roles. I have experience Nannying for ages 11mo.-11yrs and providing household help and good company for senior friends. My fellow earthlings are my passion.
Here's the Bonus!:
I am also an experienced Animal Caretaker (lover) with 7 years experience working at the local humane society and two years experience in a veterinary clinic!
Non-profit work has always been important to me since first starting out in the workforce. The only positions I've had have been in the care for people or fur kids. (With one exception at a Pizza parlour as a teenager.) I sincerely believe I've been put on this Earth to help others reach their personal goals, nurture and enrich lives and grow and learn beside them. I look forward to meeting you, your loved one, little one or pet and seeing if we are the right fit! Thanks for reading!
