Kaitlin Walls
Summary
Hi my name is Kaitlin! I’m 19 and am enrolled in college online! I have been babysitting for the past 3-4 years, with ages of 3 1/2 to 13! I am a very active person and love to be outdoors. I have 4 dogs of my own so pets are not a problem! I’m a very hands on person, I try my best to keep the kids outside or engaging in some sort of activity that doesn’t include screens! Whether it’s taking them to the park and playing soccer or doing an art project inside, they’ll be taken care of! I’m happy to help with household chores, meal prepping, small errands, dog walking, etc. I’m very outgoing and caring about what I do!
