Hi my names Kat! I have been working with kids now for years. I have worked at daycares, childcare centers and been a personal nanny. I currently live in GR (Grand Rapids) and am working at a childcare center. I have experience working with kids that are on the spectrum or special needs. I have worked with kids age ranging from new born to teenagers. Currently working with infants in a center in Grand Rapids. With children ages from 6 weeks to 5. I love working with kids and my future job plans align with helping and working with children, so I want to watch kids more full time. I am in my senior year in college, studying social work. I love animals of all kinds and I am very outgoing, caring and laidback. I also do own a car so transportation isn’t a problem. Feel free to message me Read more about any questions you may have.

Katelyn H. is very friendly, prompt, and provides structure for my children. They enjoy knowing that she is coming and I feel at ease knowing she is there with them. She keeps them on task when needed and allows them fun treats like movie days with popcorn. She establishes her own rewards system to keep the children motivated and well behaved. My older daughters think she is great, too! Katelyn has become a valuable asset to our household and we are happy to have her!
