A little bit about me

Hi! My names Katie I'm 20 years old and the perfect babysitter:) a little bit about me, I've been a babysitting professionally for 2 years but a real babysitter my whole life! I started with helping raise my little brother who's 9 now. Just this past year, I started nannying a 7 month old baby girl Monday-Friday! Shes 22 months old now, and I've been in her life ever since:) Her grandparents are home now so I see her as much as I can! As school goes, I am currently enrolled in the Nursing program at Niagara County community college. On my spare time I teach swim lessons in West Seneca, and have been a lifeguard since 2019 as well:) (I am up to date on all my CPR, first aid, and lifeguarding certifications, if interested I’d love to send them your way!

Potty training and toddler care
Homework help and school runs

Pet friendly households 🐾
Reliable transportation

I'm seeking consistent part time or full time positions in WNY and am available for date nights and last minute backup care.

A little bit about me

I have been working with children for about five years now in camp settings. I graduated from the University of Maine in Spring 2025 with a Bachelor’s of Arts in Anthropology. In the fall, I drove across the country to work at an environmental education camp, where I teach children about the outdoors through hands-on lessons and integration in the outdoors. Aside from my professional life, I enjoy being outdoors; whether it’s kayaking, hiking, or laying in my hammock reading. I also love to spend my time doing crafts, especially sewing and crocheting!
