About Kaitlin
Experience: 5 yrs
I'm a creative and friendly caregiver with five years of experience caring for children of all ages. I spent three years working at an after-school program with kids ages 5-12, helping with homework, activities, and creating a fun, structured environment. I also have experience with toddlers and infants, including regularly caring for a close friend's baby since birth. I love hands-on, engaging care-whether it's outdoor games, crafts, puzzles, or imaginative play. I'm confident enforcing household rules, keeping routines, and maintaining open communication with parents. I have my own transportation, and am happy to help with light housekeeping and meal prep. I'm also a huge animal lover-I foster dogs, volunteer at a shelter, and do dog walking, so I'm very comfortable around pets of all kinds. I'm dependable, patient, and passionate about providing a safe and positive environment where children can thrive.
Most recent review
Katie watches my son 3 days a week. She started when he was 8 months old and he is now 14 months! I cannot say more wonderful things about her. She is punctual (actually always 10 minutes early so we have time to chat about the day or ask questions before I leave for work), incredibly flexible to any last minute changes, and overall truly amazing. She is very active with my son and alway playing or taking him out to do things. Helps prep meals so she has a ton of experience bottle feeding, purées, and coming up with healthy toddler meals. I would call her a baby whisper because is one of few who can actually put a toddler down for 2 naps a day! Everything you can think of or want in a nanny, you will find in Katie!
