Hello, my name is Katie. I am 24 years old and have a degree in early childhood development. I worked for 3 years at an in-home preschool with children aged 4 months to 5 years and loved it. I have been babysitting for about 9 years dealing with a variety of ages from 6 months to about 12 years old. For two years I was a camp counselor for a camp providing a once-in-a-lifetime experience for 10 sixth-grade girls over a week, me being their primary caregiver. My experience also allowed me to work with 2-year-old children in a classroom setting as a teacher's aide. I enjoy working with children, I think that it is important to involve myself with your child making memorable activities for them to enjoy such as arts and crafts or nature walks, not taking advantage of the television. I also have my CPR certificate and am currently working towards my degree in early childhood education as a Boise State University student.

Katie is absolutely wonderful! Our family is extremely lucky to have found her! My son has been having a hard time when I leave the house. She does an excellent job at calming him down and meeting his needs while my husband and I are gone. She is always very punctual, energetic, and friendly. Katie is fluent in ASL which was a pivotal requirement when we were looking for a sitter. I would give her 10 stars if I could! Any family would be lucky to have her care for their child!
