A little bit about me

I have worked with kids as a camp counselor, I am incredibly patient, empathetic, and enthusiastic. I grew up in a house with sisters and love to stay moving, be creative, and keep a fun, safe environment. I do have first aid knowledge and I myself have a lot of dietary restrictions as well as food allergies so I am very well versed on how to keep food safe if there are allergies or restrictions. I really enjoyed working with kids throughout high school and my college years. I am a very neat person and keep things organized. Previously, I have cleaned the home and done laundry, as well as prepped lunches, dinners, or done some light errands as well as driving kids to and from school, play dates, or taking them out to breakfast, lunch, the park, etc. I am very flexible and looking to work 30 hours a week or more!! I look forward to hearing from you and hopefully working with you and wish you all the best in your search for a nanny!
Best regards,
Katie Waters
