Hi! You guys deserve a date night! My name is Kat, I'm 28 years old and I've been nannying on the side since I was in middle school. During the day, I'm a researcher at Evanston Hospital. I'm available for date night weekend help and the occasional week night. When babysitting, I love puzzles, playing outside, helping with homework, and playing creatively. I always make sure to keep the house tidy so you don't have to come home to a mess, and try to keep things as fun as possible for the kids while still getting everyone to bed on time.

It was the first time I left my 7 months old little girl with a sitter and Kay was absolutely fantastic. She came early to meet us, she was relaxed and she made me feel very comfortable. She texted me to let me know everything was alright during the evening so I did not have to ask or stress. I would definitely book her again!

Kat was great - immediately jumped in and bonded with my three boys. She was quick to suggest games and kept it fun. She made them dinner and even cleaned up afterwards - total bonus. We'd welcome her back, anytime!

Kat is a gem! Our son had a new tooth and some stranger anxiety when Kat sat him, and ended up really fussy the whole time, but she took it in stride and managed to calm him down. She is wonderful.

Kat was great with both of our children, 7 year old son and 22 month old daughter. Even when our daughter had some unusual cry outs, Kat was calm and collective and got her right back to sleep. We've already booked Kat again!!

My kids actually ask me to go out just so we can book Kat to come hang out with them. She keeps them entertained and they have a lot of fun.

My son, Payton, absolutely loved her and the first thing he said to me the following morning was, "When can Kat come again?" She was prompt, kind, jumped right in to help, and was absolutely terrific. Her Lego skills made a big impression on her too. :) Highly recommended and we've booked her again!
