Hi! I'm Mary Kate, and I've been caring for children of all ages for over 10 years. As the youngest of six kids, I grew up in a lively, busy household, which gave me a deep understanding of both the chaos and joy that come with raising kids. I love creating fun, engaging activities that keep children entertained--whether it's arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, or imaginative games. I'm also a big believer in learning through play, and I always aim to foster creativity and curiosity in the kids I care for. When I was a full time nanny, I adhered to a no-screen policy and genuinely enjoyed finding alternative ways to keep kids engaged. I'm CPR certified and have completed safety courses as part of my training to become a summer camp counselor in 2020 (before it was canceled due to COVID). I'm excited to bring my creativity, patience, and love for outdoor play to a new family!
