Hello! I’m Katy , and I bring a unique blend of experience, maturity, and fun to babysitting. With over 10 years of experience teaching yoga to children and introducing them to the wonders of aerial yoga, I have a deep connection with kids between the ages of 2-14. My history of helping friends with their children and growing up with a younger foster brother has instilled in me the values of patience, empathy, and responsibility. What makes my babysitting style unique? I love crafting with kids - from making jewelry to creating window art and wall hangings. I'm also certified in CPR. I love physical fitness, yoga, and aerial hammock tricks. I climb, hike, and like to stay very active. I can offer kids a fantastic opportunity to learn aerial yoga tricks, beginner guitar, ballet, dance, climbing, and even some beginner photoshop skills. I speak a little french and love singing, poetry, philosophy, and writing. Beyond these fun activities, I’m also a helping hand for parents. Whether it’s assisting with homework, cooking meals, or doing light housekeeping, I am there to support. At 39, I blend the best of both worlds: the wisdom of age and a heart that loves to play games and have fun with kids. My availability does vary depending on my yoga teaching and retreat schedule, but I’m always communicative and timely. Parents have even hired me specifically to teach their kids aerial yoga – a testament to the trust they place in me. I’m also endorsed by friends on UrbanSitter and can offer references upon request. In a nutshell, I am patient, energetic, creative, reliable, intelligent, and deeply committed to my core values. If you're looking for a sitter who offers a blend of maturity, fun, and a wide range of skills, I am the right choice for your family.

I have been a teacher, substitute, tutor, sitter, and caregiver on and off for many years. My bachelor's degree is in Landscape Architecture, giving me a specialty in gardening and nature, and I've nearly completed a course in Childhood Mental Health. I am able to provide transportation for up to 2 children under 13 or 3 people over 13. I can walk or care for dogs but I have allergies, so may have to limit exposure to them and cats indoors.
