Hello! My name is Katie, and I’ve been a professional caregiver since 2016. I have extensive experience caring for children from newborns to 13 years old, and I truly love helping kids learn, grow, and have fun in a safe, nurturing environment. I’m comfortable managing groups of all sizes—the largest number of children I’ve supervised alone is six, but I also served as Co-Director of a Child Outreach Program that supported 60–80 kids at a time. These experiences have strengthened my skills in organization, communication, and flexibility while keeping things calm and upbeat. I also have overnight experience through Maryville Crisis Nursery, and am trained in sleep training and crisis response including CPR and First-Aid as well as ServeSafe (food prep). In addition to childcare, I also have experience providing pet care and senior care. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or administering medications for pets, or offering compassionate companionship and daily assistance for seniors, I approach every role with patience, reliability, and respect. Families and clients describe me as dependable, caring, and adaptable. I take pride in creating an environment—whether for children, pets, or older adults—where everyone feels comfortable and cared for. I truly enjoy helping others and would be thrilled to bring that care and energy to your family.

I’m a people person through and through — caring for others has always come naturally to me. I’ve spent the past few years doing a little bit of everything: babysitting, nannying, housecleaning, organizing, and supporting families who just need that extra set of reliable hands. I’ve worked with kids of all ages, from energetic toddlers to thoughtful teens. I love finding fun ways to keep them engaged, creative, and laughing. Arts and crafts, dancing in the living room, reading storybooks with silly voices, that’s my kind of day. When it comes to cleaning and housekeeping, I’m equal parts detail oriented and easygoing. I actually enjoy bringing order and sparkle back into a space , there’s something so satisfying about making a home feel peaceful again. I’m big on communication and always check in to make sure things are done the way you like them. I think everyone deserves to feel seen, safe, and respected. And if there’s a pet in the house, even better! I’m the type who talks to animals like they understand every word. People usually describe me as dependable, kind, and upbeat. I’m the person who shows up on time, keeps a positive attitude, and genuinely cares about the people (and pets!). At the end of the day, my goal is simple: to make life a little easier, a little cleaner, and a lot brighter for the families I work with.
