Meet Katie

  • Comfortable with pets

Hi! My name is Katie and I’ve been a nanny for 13 plus years. I have worked with families of all sizes, only children to families of 6. I have experience as a summer nanny, after school, all day, part-time, full-time, and even as a live-in nanny nationally and inter-nationality. I am comfortable and confident in taking care of children of all ages. I am very attentive, responsible, and active. I have always had a strong interest in caring for the environment and am actively working towards a zero-waste lifestyle. I looking for a family that shares my views on environmentalism, whether they are just starting their journey or are already living an eco-conscious lifestyle. As a green nanny/house manager I would be able to provide advice and take action about how to make less waste, in such ways as grocery shopping plastic-free, transitioning into greener cleaning solutions, composting/utilizing food Read more scraps and more depending on the family needs.

Katie was competent, upbeat and easy-going. The kids had a great time with her, even though they usually don't take to a new babysitter well. Thank you Katie!!

Katie was great with our son! He is in a very clingy stage and I was surprised she could even hold him without him crying! We would definitely hire her again.

Katie was great for my first time on chime, I felt really secure leaving my toddler with her.

Katie was the first sitter we booked through chime and the first time in a long time we had someone who we didn't know personally watch our three year old. She was great. On time, polite, knew how to engage our kid so we could leave with very little drama/crying. She fed her dinner, gave her a bath and got her to bed. I appreciate that she asked good questions and didn't take anything for granted. When we need a sitter again, we will see if Katie is available!
