Hi, Iβm Kaitlyn, but I usually go by Katie! I have been working in childcare since 2018 and I am now 20. I have been around kids my whole life as my mother and older sister are both speech language pathologists, and my eldest sister is a special ed teacher. I worked for about two and a half years at the Newburyport Montessori School, and spent my gap year as an assistant teacher in a preschool class. I go to school at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York, but spend my summers home in Newburyport, Massachusetts. I am dedicated to creating a safe, creative, imaginative, and engaging space for your child to play and learn. I have experience with infants to age 7, but am comfortable with any age.

Hi! Iβm a mom of three with many years of hands-on childcare experience, both personally and professionally. Iβve worked in an early childhood learning center and with BOCES Special Education, giving me experience caring for children of different ages, needs, and abilities. I also currently coach recreational gymnastics and have completed nursing school, which has given me additional knowledge of health and safety. Iβm patient, dependable, caring, and genuinely love working with children. As a mom myself, I understand how important it is to have someone you can truly trust with your little ones. My goal is always to provide a safe, comfortable, and fun environment where children feel cared for and parents feel at ease.

Iβve babysat privately for around 2-3 years for family friends and family members, then was employed in a daycare as an assistant. During my employment I took a 25 hour child development class, as well as a 5 hour seminar, and First Aid/Red Cross class, getting certified in both areas. I opened the daycare and closed, cleaning before child arrival and after dismissal, as well as in between activities. Changed diapers, clothes (after accidents), meal prep every week, lesson planning every week, including outside activities and learning activities inside. Communicated with parents, and did daycare tours and promotions on Instagram. And worked with kids with disabilities. I was an excellent assistant/teacher for the kids, I am very patient and understanding. I have a lot of compassion and empathy. I have a big heart, and Iβm very energetic and happy with kids. I also know how to handle tough situations and moments without getting stressed out. And I am good working in a fast paced environment
