About Kelly

Experience: 9 yrs

I'm a masters-level early-childhood specialist (speech therapist) and have been working with kids aged 1-12 for my whole 20+ year career. In addition to my part-time job helping children, I also like to provide childcare for families. I'm a very engaged sitter and like to play! Whether play involves singing songs with a baby, making crafts with a preschooler or baking with a school-aged kiddo, I'm in! Im very comfortable watching kids with disabilities, including autism, sensory differences and ADHD. In addition to my professional career, I'm also a seasoned mom having 3 kids of my own. You can trust me to provide exceptional care for your little one.

Kelly watched my 5-week old baby for a full day. I was sad to leave him, but I knew right away that he was in great hands with Kelly. She kept him happy with lots of cuddles and she sent me cute pictures throughout the day. I would definitely hire Kelly again!
