About Katherine

Experience: 10 yrs

I just recently moved back to Portland, Maine, after living in Billings, Montana for the last year. In Montana, I worked as a remote 3rd grade teacher. Prior to living in Montana, I lived in Vermont, where I worked for a family as their full-time nanny for almost 2. 5 years. I was certainly sad to leave, but thankfully still get to spend weekends with those kiddos now that I'm back in New England. I graduated in 2017 from the University of Maine at Farmington with a degree in Elementary Education. I have worked with children as infants, all the way up to middle school. I completed a series of teaching semesters within my college program, and right after graduating I worked at an early intervention center in Maine. This job was very transformative for me, and I learned so much about behavior and development in children. I am very excited to continue to work with kids and am hopeful of new opportunities that come my way in a new place. I look forward to hearing from you!

Most recent review

Katie is our 4 year old son`s babysitter and she is wonderful with him. He looks forward to her coming to stay with him and is always full of great stories to tell when we get home. She is willing to work with our son on his reading and math as well as structured and free play time. Katie is a safe driver and I am very comfortable with our son riding in a car with her. I highly recommend Katie.
