About Kate
Experience: 3 yrs
Providing thoughtful, attentive care to children is both my passion and my field of study. I am currently a junior majoring in Special Education and have hands-on experience working with children with disabilities as a paraprofessional in both public and private school settings. I also have extensive babysitting experience caring for multiple children at once, including two boys ages 2-4 and three children ages 1, 5, and 8. I prioritize creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children feel supported and encouraged to be themselves. I am patient, observant, and responsive to each child's individual needs, routines, and developmental stages. I communicate openly with parents about daily activities or any concerns and always place safety and well-being first. Helping children feel secure, understood, and happy in my care is incredibly rewarding, and I would love to provide dependable support for your family.

We had a great experience with Kate! She took wonderful care of our two boys (ages 2 and 4) and was always patient, attentive, and kind. The kids were comfortable with her right away and always happy when she was around. She did an awesome job keeping them entertained and handling their routines, and we always felt confident leaving them in her care. We’d definitely recommend her to any family looking for a dependable and caring babysitter.
