Hello there, My name is Katy I am a 28 year old elementary teacher looking to babysit for a little extra income. I have tons of experience working with children of all ages. I taught 2nd and 3rd grade for 5 years, and am currently working at a Montessori with ages 2-6. I have worked in childcare facilities since I was 19 years old, and began babysitting while in college. I have cared for as young as 8 months to as old as 12 years; I have no age preference, but it has been a while since I changed a diaper:) I have references galore, I'm CPR and First Aid certified, and I have a working vehicle. I am enthusiastic, creative, and a lot of fun! I enjoy working on homework with kids, or coming up with engaging activities for us to do. I have a huge imagination and staying Read more active is what I prefer over tv watching or computer playing; I'd rather create a real-life computer game! I plan on attending grad school in the fall, and I am working only part-time at the Montessori so I have open availability on evenings and weekends. I charge more or less depending on the number of children, and the number also depends on the age of the children. I look forward to meeting some amazing families, I hope I sound like a right fit for your kiddos! Sincerely, Katy
