About Katlyn
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello, I'm Katlyn! I have an Associate's Degree in Child Development and currently working on my Bachelors degree in Infant/Toddler Studies. I worked in child care centers as an infant teacher for 10 years. Then I moved on to being a certified Parent Educator and worked with prenatal Mothers and families with children under 3. I was also a nanny for great family I found on Care. com for over a year when my son was first born back in 2015. He came with me to my nanny job everyday and had a best buddy the same age as him! I love to read books, do sensory activities, art, and be outside with the kids! Making sure that activities are developmentally appropriate is important to me!

Katlyn has worked for us for 1 1/2 years and she has been fantastic. She started with us when my son was 12 weeks old and she brought her son to work with her and she watched both children (they were almost exactly the same age). Katlyn treated my son like he was her own. Many times I would come home and she would be holding and cuddling my son while hers played on the floor. She was also great at coming up with age appropriate activities as the boys developed. Whether it be painting, coloring or playing with flour or water outside, she was always looking for creative ideas. She took them to parks, the family museum and the zoo whenever she could. She was also great about communicating with me throughout the day. I would get text messages and pictures of them doing their activities which was wonderful to see how their day was going! I would highly recommend Katlyn for any child care position. It is very clear that is her passion.
