About Kathryn
Experience: 15 yrs
Hello! My name is Kat and I have always loved working with children! As a doctoral student in clinical psychology with over 15 years of childcare experience, I bring a unique blend of knowledge and passion to babysitting. My background includes work in Early Intervention, early childhood education, developmental psychology, and infant mental health. I believe in using a developmentally-informed, interactive, and responsive approach to childcare. As a babysitter, I love to engage in collaborative and imaginative play while fostering independence. Your child's well-being and happiness are my top priorities, and I am dedicated to creating a safe and nurturing environment for them to thrive in. I am available for occasional jobs on weekends, afternoons/evenings, and some weekdays during the summer. To ensure a good fit, I'm more than happy to schedule a virtual meeting or phone call before babysitting. I'd love to connect with you!

Our 6-month old LOVES Kat! We don't live near family, so she was actually our son's first babysitter. We were definitely nervous leaving him, but she made us feel very comfortable by sending lots of updates/pictures the entire time we were out. We have rehired her a few times and she always shows up with a smile! We also love that she is dedicated to playing with our son the entire time she babysits :)
