Booked by 2 families in Valley Farms, AZ

Hello! My name is Katelyn, and I am a fun, loving, optimistic 21-year-old girl. I just recently graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) from Arizona State University, which is very exciting! By choice, I did a majority of my clinical rotations at Phoenix Children’s Hospital, as I am most interested in caring for children. I absolutely adore everything about them; their eagerness to learn, their curiosity, fun and loving spirits, imaginations, playful natures, etc! I'm all about having a good time with them, and will support any and all of their needs. I would be honored to care for anyone's child -- my intention is to protect their safety and well-being at all costs. Going into more about who I am as a person, I believe I am (and strive to be) a kind, caring, considerate, respectful, and understanding individual. I am also very adventurous, easy-going, and open-minded. I'm up for anything. I love to cook, bake delicious treats, read, occasionally play cutesy-girly video games on my Nintendo Switch (but I'm definitely open to playing more intense games if you have a girl or boy who loves that type of stuff!), explore nature, swim, and be goofy. I am very family-oriented as well. I have had my driver's license since the day I turned 16, so I have been driving for about 5 years now. I have a clean record, and have driven short-distance, long-distance, in the rain, during dust storms, you name it. I can handle all types of environments. I am CPR certified as well. As for my childcare experience, I babysat many of my younger cousins for years, worked as a teacher's assistant at a math and reading center for 1 year, and was a full-time lead teacher at KinderCare for 6 months in the year 2024. I loved both jobs, and only left for school reasons. I have experience in caring for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and kindergarteners. I am happy to help out with anything you need. Crafts, homework, driving to appointments, school, or extracurriculars, etc.

For two decades, l've found immense joy in nurturing children of all ages, from infants to pre-teens. My previous babysitting roles inspired me to dedicate myself to making a positive impact on young lives and supporting families. I am patient, creative, friendly, and comfortable enforcing household rules. I communicate with parents using their preferred method, providing regular updates. I enjoy playing outdoor sports, board games, and educational games. I am happy to care for up to five children and assist with cooking and light housekeeping. I am also trained in CPR. Ultimately, I strive to create a safe, fun, and enriching environment for your little ones, and I look forward to the possibility of bringing my experience and warmth into your home.
