A little bit about me
Hi there!
I’m a fun-loving, energetic nanny with a genuine passion for caring for children. With years of hands-on experience, I pride myself on creating a safe, nurturing, and joyful environment where kids can thrive. I’m just as comfortable whipping up healthy, delicious meals as I am planning engaging, age-appropriate activities—from arts and crafts to outdoor adventures and everything in between.
Whether we’re exploring nature, baking together, or enjoying a cozy game day indoors, I aim to make every moment memorable and enriching. I believe in treating every child with love, patience, and respect—just as I would my own. If you’re looking for a dependable, enthusiastic nanny who will support your family with heart and dedication, I’d love to connect!

A little bit about me
Hello my name is Katelyn, I’m a crematory operator and junior college student studying mortuary science. I’m the second eldest of four siblings so busy days and light housework is something I’m very familiar with. Within the past couple years I’ve worked for three recreational camps catering to kids ranging from ages 2-14. In addition to serving as a private nanny for a family of three. I’m so excited to see what the future brings and look forward to potentially working with you and your family :))

A little bit about me
I am a certified EMT-B and have over 3 years of experience preforming lifesaving and routine interventions for pediatric and adult patients. I helped raise my two siblings, one of which has ASD, and I have held a CPR certification since I was 13 years old. I have a BS in Biology and I begin medical school in July, 2026. I am very passionate about engaging with kids and keeping them active mentally and physically. I am always willing to learn and adapt to established routines and behaviors. I am happy to help with pets too! I am looking to work long days (up to 12 hours) with the potential of “call-ins” if there are any last-minute plans or emergencies. I am also happy to work overnight shifts if need be!

A little bit about me
Hello! My experience working with kids goes a little further than what I was able to specify in that particular section: I grew up taking care of my younger cousins while our parents worked or went back to school to pursue their careers. I also volunteered at my church from ages 14 to 16 caring for children ages 2-4. In high school I was a TA for the special needs gym class and volunteered in the special education classroom at the neighboring elementary school. I am also a registered behavior therapist working with children on the spectrum ages ranging from 3-6. While I’ve been in the ABA field I’ve had the pleasure of being placed in home settings with only children, as well as siblings, and I’ve also had the opportunity to be an aide within a preschool setting. I’m also currently in school majoring in early child development!
