I have been taking care of children since I was 12 years old, starting with my cousins at a young age. At 16 I began babysitting for non family members. I continued to babysit through college, where I studied elementary school education. At 22 I became a full time nanny. When it was time for that little guy to head off to school I got a job as a preschool teacher. I taught full time for five years. I have experience with a wide range of children. I have experience with infants all the way up to 13-year-olds. I have experience with multiples, also of all ages. I have worked with children with autism, traumatic brain injury, epilepsy, and many other developmental and behavior disabilities. I have a two year old daughter. I chose not to return to my teaching job after having her because I enjoy spending my days Read more with her singing, dancing, coloring, doing crafts, cooking, practicing life skills, and playing outdoors. Because I know how hard it would be for me to leave my child, I promise to take the best care of yours while you’re at work. I look forward to talking to you, Kaitlyn
