Hello my name is Katherine Smith and am twenty five years old with over fifteen years of babysitting experience with children of all ages (infants through teens), and I also specialize with children with disabilities. I can also pet sit; I have three cats and one dog and love them dearly. I am currently employed as a Paralegal part-time Monday-Friday from 9:00 AM-1:00 PM. I am currently living in Gaithersburg, Maryland. I grew up with a brother with Cerebral Palsy and a younger sister whose Girl Scout troop I lead all through High School. I have a three year old baby girl as well who I would need to have with me if the hours are outside of my sitters hours. I love children and I’d be a wonderful babysitter for children of any age or gender.

Katie is an exceptional sitter. She would watch our two year old daugther on occasion (mostly for date nights) and was very reliable. She comes highly recommended.

Katie arrived early, which was great since it was the first time leaving my 7 month old with a sitter and I was a little nervous. She was very polite and seemed at ease with everything. She provided updates for me so I didn't have to worry about my little one which I very much appreciated! Will be using her again for future date nights!

Katie was amazing. She was on time and my two girls 8 & 11 loved her. When I got home the kids were sad I was home early. They wanted her to stay and they were asking when she would be back. I will use here everytime. I would HIGHLY recommend her.
