Hello! My name is Rowan and I currently work as a behavioral specialist in special education at a public high school. I have been babysitting since my early teens and have worked with children of all ages. I am happy to do any activities that your child is most interested in and passionate about! Whether that be crafting, outdoor adventures, putting on at-home recitals, or wherever their imagination takes them. I am willing to do all parts of your child’s routine, including cooking, bathing, cleaning, homework help, or whatever is required for your child to be happy, healthy, and safe!

I have more than 15 years of experience dealing with children from newborns to 12 years of age, twins and 3 to 5 siblings. I am CPR and first aid certified. I am bilingual (English-Spanish). I speak a little bit of German too. I enjoy working with children. They are so much fun, full of energy and love. I enjoy laughing with them. I like to teach and educate them. I have excellent references. Update: September 30th 2026. Currently looking for a job position on Saturdays and occasional on Sundays. Could be also Friday nights.

“If you're looking for a babysitter you can trust completely, Katia is the one! She has cared for our twins since they were 6 months old, and they absolutely adore her. She treats children like her own, with warmth, patience, and endless energy. Katia is always on time and 100% reliable, so you can head out for date night or a weekend plan with total peace of mind. She keeps parents in the loop with photos and video updates, so you never have to wonder how things are going. She follows your routines and rules, handles behavior with a gentle but consistent touch, and makes sure the kids are happy and well fed. She is fluent in Spanish and helped our twins become bilingual, a wonderful bonus for any family. Her English is excellent, and she communicates clearly and kindly. Kids love her, parents trust her, and she makes every visit fun and safe. We can't recommend Katia highly enough!”

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
