Hi! My name is Kelsey Mulgrew. I’m 30 and am currently taking a break from grad school. I live in Maplewood and am available for work for a while. I have a pretty extensive history working with kids in many different settings. I’ve nannied from a young age and went on to work as a teachers aide at different schools and with many different age groups. It ranges from 3 to 14 for the most part. I’ve also worked in special education and assisted with deaf and autistic students. Besides that, I am certified in first aid and CPR for infants and children. I can change diapers, help with homework, and I can cook anything with a recipe. I know a lot of child-friendly movies and rudimentary sign language (my grad school was a deaf campus). Please don’t hesitate to contact me with questions! Thanks for reading~

Kelsey Hidalgo Mulgrew was employed as a babysitter for my two children for several years. My kids had a reputation for refusing to stay with anyone outside of the family – the network of babysitters in our town actually avoided us. Kelsey was a godsend. She knew exactly how to manage them. She would arrive with her bag of tricks full of books, games and Japanese anime videos and my kids were fascinated by her. Kelsey also took care of their physical needs: making them snacks, changing their diapers and clothes, and coaxing them to brush their teeth before bedtime. She was not only caring and resourceful, but reliable, on time and respectful. She would make any family a wonderful nanny.
