A little bit about me

I am an energetic and dedicated caregiver with a genuine passion for working with children of all ages and abilities. With a strong background in both personal and professional child care, I bring a unique blend of warmth, structure, and creativity to every interaction.

Currently, I work as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), providing one-on-one support to children with developmental disabilities and behavioral challenges, primarily those diagnosed with Autism. This role has strengthened my ability to create patient, nurturing, and engaging environments tailored to each child’s individual needs.

Beyond my professional experience, I’ve spent years helping care for my younger siblings, as well as my 11-year-old niece and 7-year-old nephew—organizing fun activities, preparing meals, and helping with homework. These experiences have deepened my love for caregiving and my commitment to supporting children’s growth in a safe and encouraging space.

I’d love to connect!

A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Cait, I'm 22 years old, and I am a dance educator! I love working with children, especially in the arts, because it is so rewarding to see them express themselves and find joy through different outlets. Through 12 years working with children, I have gained experience as a mother's helper, babysitter, part-time nanny, school teacher, dance educator, gymnastics instructor, and more. I have a natural ability to connect well with children and a motherly instinct when it comes to caretaking. Each family I have babysat for has felt like family to me, and I hope to meet a family that I can connect well with and be a part their child's journey!
