Hello! My name is Kathryn, it's nice to meet you! I've worked with kids of all ages in all different settings for the past 15 years; throughout those years I have been a preschool head teacher, an afterschool kindergarten/cooking teacher, a camp counselor, a swimming/boating instructor, a tennis instructor, a babysitter, a nanny, and a guitar teacher. Most recently, I am a very happy and proud aunt of a wonderful six-month-old! I graduated in May of 2011 with an Master's degree in early childhood and elementary school education from Sarah Lawrence College. My personal interests include riding my bike, birdwatching, woodworking, dancing, playing guitar, singing, drawing cartoons, camping, cooking, and learning languages (I am proficient in French and Spanish). I like to share these interests with kids as often as possible, and love when they share their interests with me! Through all my work with children, I've learned that Read more they are so naturally curious about and interested in the world around them. All kids, whether in a classroom, at a camp, or simply at home, deserve ample opportunities to discover, pursue, develop, and share their interests and passions. To me, babysitting is synonymous with caring, talking, playing, creating, learning, laughing, and exploring. Whew, enough about me---I can't wait to learn all about you!
