About Katherine

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello! My name is Katy, and I have been babysitting for 10 years. As the oldest of 21 cousins I was the built-in babysitter from a young age, which sparked my interest in childcare! In the past 6 years I have worked for the GSRP preschool program, in a special education preschool, and have worked in before/after school programs. I am comfortable with small or large groups of children! I have experience with Infants all the way through middle school aged students. I love all age groups and think each age has something unique to offer. I also have ample experience with special education as well. I have worked as a 1-on-1 paraprofessional for elementary students and for the past 4 years have been an assistant teacher in a early childhood special education classroom. I pride myself on the connections I make with kids and their families! I believe kids thrive when provided with a consistent routine, clear expectations, and lots of engaging activities.

Katy is extremely compassionate and caring towards kids of all ages. She makes it a priority to build a connection with each individual kid she cares for. Katy also has an amazing ability to meet the needs of kids emotionally and help support them if they are experiencing bigger emotions. She is also timely, fun and authentic. Katy would make an amazing addition to your summer sitter list!
