Hello, my name is Kaitlyn! I have a bachelor's degree in psychology and sociology from the University of Washington and am enrolled in a master's program for psychology at the New School for Social Research. My goal is to someday provide mental health care for children. I have significant experience with children of all ages, often 2-3 at a time. I have cared for children and infants since I was 12 years old. Some of the families I've worked with before included: twin infants from the ages of 6 months to 3 years (and later another infant); twin toddlers and an infant; 6th grade girl and 4th grade boy, and many more! Additionally, I am First Aid, CPR, and AED certified. I have experience in applied behavioral analysis as a certified/registered behavior technician. In this role, I worked in schools, homes, and clinics with children with a range of developmental Read more and/or emotional disorders- primarily autism. I am patient, responsible, highly adaptable, easygoing, and have a good sense of humor. I love working with children and genuinely enjoy spending time with them! A few of my proudest accomplishments as a sitter/nanny have been teaching a child to walk and fostering an enduring love for reading and music!

Kaitlyn is Amazing! She is everything we hoped and wished for. Always on-time. Reliable. Professional. Kind. Caring and loving. Fun and energetic. Smart. We only wish we had found her earlier! Within a week of her starting to take care of our almost 18-month old son, he started walking, started sign language. He was happy all the time. Kaitlyn took him outside every day, played many different games, encouraged him to walk and play, read books to him, played music and danced with him. I definitely recommend her. She is a lovely person and a great nanny!
