Hello, i have my bachelors degree in internation relation and speak 4 languages fluently, English, French and Spanish and my native language Sousou. But one of my favorite hobby is spend time with children, because I’m compassionate, outgoing, and working with children come to me as second natural. I believes patients is key when working with children. Every child is different, and you have to know how to work with all different personalities. I puts extra focus on creating a safe environment both physically and emotionally for children in her care. I enjoys spending time outdoors, but in severe
weather I can find keeping everyone
entertained. I will often do painting,
coloring, make fun snacks, or do imaginary
play. When working with children who are
struggling with their behavior, I will use
the counting system to give them til ten count to regroup. Then I will help the children to a better solution to the problem they are facing.

A little bit about me
I have worked with kids as a camp counselor, I am incredibly patient, empathetic, and enthusiastic. I grew up in a house with sisters and love to stay moving, be creative, and keep a fun, safe environment. I do have first aid knowledge and I myself have a lot of dietary restrictions as well as food allergies so I am very well versed on how to keep food safe if there are allergies or restrictions. I really enjoyed working with kids throughout high school and my college years. I am a very neat person and keep things organized. Previously, I have cleaned the home and done laundry, as well as prepped lunches, dinners, or done some light errands as well as driving kids to and from school, play dates, or taking them out to breakfast, lunch, the park, etc. I am very flexible and looking to work 30 hours a week or more!! I look forward to hearing from you and hopefully working with you and wish you all the best in your search for a nanny!
Best regards,
Katie Waters
