Hi, I’m Katherine!
I’m 22 years old and an experienced babysitter who would love the opportunity to nanny for a family looking for someone like me :)
I have cared for a couple of families with children aged from 4 years to 12 years old and have frequently looked after cousins from 7 months old. I am a positive, enthusiastic and outgoing person, who finds caring for kids the most rewarding and enjoyable job in the world.
I’ve learnt patience and empathy through caring for kids, and the importance of being warm and understanding as at the end of the day, these are childrens minds and hearts I am helping to grow, which is an amazing thing to get to experience. I love outdoor sensory play, trips to the park or taking the baby for a walk in the pram, quiet time reading books, arts and craft as well as baking with the kids. I aim to foster a creative and fun space, but also a deeper relationship where they can trust me.
I‘m super clean and organised, and have no problem doing housework, cooking meals, cleaning up after play and have experience with school drops-offs/pick-ups.
I am cpr trained as a mandatory requirment through becoming a swimming instructor and i understand the importance of maintaining a safe and comfortable environment for a child, and aim to prioritise that fully. I love working closely with parents to learn what parenting styles work for them, and how to implement any techniques into my time spent with the kiddos.
Please feel free to get in touch if you have anymore questions regarding me and my experience, or if I seem a good fit for your family. I look forward to chatting with you :)
