Hello! I have worked in childcare since 2013 and have recently acquired my license as an occupational therapist. While I wait for my job in a pediatric clinic to begin in December, I am looking for some part time babysitting. Along with providing childcare services directly to families, I also have three years of experience working in behavior therapy with children diagnosed with ASD and Down Syndrome. I have extensive experience with ages infant-teenage. I strive to develop a strong rapport with the children I work with so they feel comfortable and safe while away from their primary caregiver. Would be open to weekend/date night childcare after beginning full time job in December.

Katelyn was outstanding! Taking care of our (3) Kids Ages 5, 4 & 2 in addition to taking care of them she handled meal prep, bedtime and even helped clean up while the kids were sleeping in the evening. Coming in from out of town, prior to our arrival she made us feel comfortable by having a call with her prior to the 2 days she watched our little ones. 5 Stars Book with confidence! Always happy to be a reference, Lou & Amanda
