About Katherine

I love working with kids because I find joy in children's curiosity, energy, and unique views of the world. I hope to work full time in environmental education and work specifically with children. I am on Nantucket until late October working full time with the Maria Mitchell association and I am looking for jobs to work in the evenings preferably. I have worked with kids since I was 14, assisting in dance classes with kids aged 4-8 years. I also began babysitting around that time for an infant who I have watched for the last 6 years. Additionally, I have over 6 years experience working with children in large groups through education volunteer work at my local aquarium. In my spare time, I like to crochet, watch movies, go to the beach with my friends, read books, and cook! I am calm under pressure, I thrive in high activity environments and I am always ready to try new things. My skills include patience, creativity, and I am Red Cross first aid/CPR/AED certified for all ages
