Hello families! My name is Katie O'Brien, and I'm a University of Kentucky freshman coming home from early May to mid-August, ready to bring fun and reliable care to your children this summer. I have five years of experience working with kids from newborn to 12 years old, so I am comfortable with any age range. I've also worked as a youth gymnastics coach and summer camp counselor, which means I'm great at creating engaging activities and keeping kids active and happy! I am CPR and First Aid certified, and I am happy to provide transportation to any planned activities. I am passionate about creating a positive and fun environment for children, and I would love to talk to you about how I can help your family this summer! I have a very flexible summer schedule, so feel free to reach out!
