"Kierra was always on time, she was always great with the kids. Kierra showed all the kids she met that kindness is right thing to do. She always taught them that using words instead of tantrums was the best way for not only them to know it’s ok to use their voices but for others to know what they are feeling. Kierra always came in to work with a smile and purpose each day."

A little bit about me

I’m Kaitlyn!
I recently moved to the area from Brooklyn, NY and currently work full-time as a Client Care Manager for a home care agency. I’ve always been drawn to caregiving in all forms, and while I now work with older adults, I’ve spent over 10 years as a nanny, tutor, and travel caregiver for families.

I have a degree in Counseling and Human Services, and a real love for helping people feel safe, supported, and encouraged - especially kids! I’ve worked with children of all ages, including those with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and always aim to create a warm, engaging environment where they can thrive.

I’m reliable, fun, and bubbly, and I really enjoy getting to know each child’s unique personality. Whether it’s arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, or quiet reading time, I love finding ways to make the day special.

Looking forward to connecting and hopefully becoming a positive part of your family’s routine!

A little bit about me

I have been a mental health professional for 9 years, working with special needs kids/adolescents and adults. I’ve been a babysitter for toddlers and children. I love pets and would help take care of the furry babies as well! I’m very down to earth but I believe in consistency so I will always enforce the rules of the home. I love exploring with kids outside and getting them involved in exercise and games. I am very in touch with my inner child and kids are drawn to me because of that. I work part time as a hostess right now but I would be willing to become a full time nanny if the pay is better than my current job. I am returning to grad school to finish my masters degree in psychology and plan to go on to complete doctoral work in psychology. I don’t smoke or drink and I am mentally stable. I am looking forward to working with your family! :)
