Looking for work as a babysitter or nanny

  • 10 years paid experience
  • Babysitter in Monterey, CA 93940

Meet Kathryn

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

I have been babysitting for over 20 years for children ranging in age from 3 months old to 16 years old.  I enjoy playing with the children while still maintaining a well disciplined and safe enviroment.  I believe in structure but also think running around and playing tag is an essential part of the job.  From beginning reading and math to learning to write papers and children with learning difficulties, I have experience with homework help as well as cooking, cleaning, laundry, school pick-up and drop-off and bedtime routines.  I have a clean driving record and strong references.

Katie was fantastic with our 3.5 year old daughter! We were visiting from SF and used Katie for the weekend. She is trustworthy, calm and kind.

Katy was absolutely wonderful with our 3 children. They all loved her and she gave us such piece of mind while we went out to dinner. Will definitely book again!!

Katie was great to work with and easy to communicate. We needed her to watch our kids while we attended a wedding. We didn't want the kids to be in the hotel room the whole time and Katie suggested lots of fun things for the kids to do while we were away. We were happy with her and the kids were safe and enjoyed their time with Katie.

Katie was a pleasure to work with and took great care of our boys while we were at a wedding in Carmel. We feel comfortable with Katie right from the start!

We hired Katie to help us out with 2 very active boys, 6 and 9, while visiting the area. Coming from New York City, I was nervous to hire someone without a face to face interview beforehand. Katie put my mind at ease in an instant. She is prompt, easy-going and obviously experienced. The boys had a fantastic time due to her knowledge of Monterey and her ability to be clear and firm with them while keeping it fun...not an easy task with my boys. I recommend her without reservation.

This was the first time that we have had to leave our daughter with someone that we had not known for a significant amount of time, and it was a great decision. Our daughter was excited about the possibilities before Katie came over, and could do nothing but talk about how much fun she had had afterward. We are looking forward to working with Katie in the future.

Katie was a great sitter for us... she was always on time and our daughter loved her. She's the first sitter we found on sittercity and now we're back looking in DC because we've moved. I would certainly recommend Katie to other families.
