A little bit about me

Hi Everyone! Being a parent is one of the most joyful experiences (or so I have heard), but sometimes it can be overwhelming so I am here to help with that. I m the oldest child of a big family and have always loved children and seem to grow a special bond with them. I have not taken a nanny position in a couple years, but I am very experienced and the little ones always love how interactive I am.❤️

A little bit about me

My name is Kaitlyn and I'm a former preschool teacher seeking a new path. I've cared for kids ages 6 months to 7-years-old for over five years, with three of those years being teaching kids of all abilities in my classroom. Teaching was such a gift as it really taught me how to understand the many ways children communicate with us and how to handle different scenarios. When it comes to in-home care, I have been known to stick to a schedule parents give me of meal times and bed times.
While in high school, I interned in the special needs room mid-day. This has taught me a lot about patience and caring for kids of all ages and needs.
On a lighter side, I love pets, crafts, and anything Disney related. I look forward to getting to know you and your family!
