About Kelsey

Hi!! My name is Kelsey! I recently moved to Manhattan because my partner is stationed at Fort Riley, and I'm excited to get back into babysitting. I've loved working with kids since I was a teenager and have over a decade of experience nannying everyone from infants to school-aged kids. I also spent a year nannying a sweet 5-year-old boy with autism, which sparked my passion for specialized care. Professionally, I hold a Master's in Social Work and recently became an LCSW. For the last 7 years, I worked in behavioral healthcare in Chicago supporting individuals with severe mental, physical, and developmental disabilities. Because of my background and high school social work internships, I am incredibly comfortable with all ages, behaviors, and special needs. Additionally, I've owned everything from reptiles to small mammals and currently have 2 large dogs, so pets are no issue!
