A little bit about me
Hi my name is Katie I am from Pennsylvania. I have always loved working with kids by babysitting or volunteering at camps, but I truly got a lot of experience when I worked at a sleep away summer camp for two years. I got the chance to live in a bunk with my girls who were ages 6-10 but I got to work with kids at this camp from ages 5-16. I worked as an everyday counselor and also as a soccer specialist. Along with this, I babysit when I get the chance since I am in college. I babysit currently for a family with 4 young children 9 and under, and I previously babysat for a family with 3 young children 7 and under. I have also worked in a daycare which gave me experience with a wide age range of children. Again, I really enjoy working with children and love to teach them and learn more about their fun personalities.
