Hi, family! I'm Katie, I live in Nutley and I am a 23-year-old with years of experience working with children and toddlers, children with special needs, seniors, and pets of all sizes. I taught religious ed for 1st and 3rd grade for 3 years, was an aide in a special needs school for over a year, was the regular babysitter of a 2-year-old child for 1 year and have done occasional babysitting for children of all ages and needs for over 3 years. I have been working with seniors 70+ at various capacities my whole life. I have occasionally dog/cat sit for others for many years and have my own dog, Lola. I graduated from MSU with my BA in History in May of 2016. I currently work in an elder-law law firm. I plan on going to graduate school in the future. I am responsible, dependable and I genuinely Read more care about others and their loved ones. I have experience working with families and individuals with many different needs. I look forward to new opportunities to help others. I love playing with children and getting creative to keep them entertained and learning. I am a non-smoker and I am very comfortable with pets. I am able to do housecleaning if that is something else you may need help with. I like to be engaged with the children I babysit. I encourage children & toddlers to play games, read, and make arts & crafts. I've worked in early education and I take what I've learned in the classroom and apply it to my babysitting! Although the kids and I have fun, I am very respectful of parents' wishes and rules and I honestly communicate with parents.
