About Kelsey
Experience: 20 yrs
I am a "Jack of all Trades". I owned a very successful Reggio Preschool for 20 years in Montana and have my degree in Early Childhood Education. When my own 2 grown boys (21 &22) graduated and began their own adult lives, I sold my preschool and became a traveling Au Pair/House/Property Manager. My past few years have been spent in New Zealand, Fiji, Texas and now Washington. My duties have included: full time nannying, cooking, cleaning, attending to farm animals, gardening, doing yard and household maintenance, bookkeeping, tour guiding, and of course laundry. I LOVE kids and use positive discipline methods. I would love to work for a family where screen time is not my competition. I get messy with anything from art projects to mud, but I always clean up. I spend my free time in nature hiking, camping, rafting, fishing etc. I play piano and hand drums, love live music and can't wait to join a new volleyball league. I'm fully vaccinated and respectful to others choices.
Most recent review
Kelsey is one of a kind! She is so patient and kind. She cared for our 18 month old and knew the different development stages and exactly what he needed next. She had many different activities planned and he loved seeing her walk through the door every morning and greeting her (he always knew he was going to do something fun when she was around). She cooked, cleaned and gave it her all. She was always in a happy mood and happy to be with our child. We absolutely LOVE her! :)
