Hello! My name is Katie, I'm 32 years old, and I'm a semi-recent Minnesota transplant. I'm a career nanny that's passionate about children - I've been nannying in one form or another since I was 16! I have a degree in Family and Child Development and worked a Lead Toddler and Twos teacher for two years before I returned to nannying, which I've been doing for eight years now. I have experience with ages 2 months to 12 years, although most of my time has been spent with infants and toddlers. I love spending time outside with children and watching them discover the natural world, as well as doing sensory and art with them. I love going on adventures to the zoo or museums and enjoy going to the library with young kids as well. My style is very much child-led, with them taking the reins on what our day Read more looks like within a structured, predictable schedule. If they want to play trucks all day, then we play trucks all day! I believe in open, direct communication with parents and love working as a team to provide the children with an educational, exciting and safe childhood. When I'm not caring for children, I love taking hikes, working on embroidery projects, spending time with my cat and watching hockey.
