About Kelsey

Experience: 8 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I am a "Jack of all Trades". I owned a very successful Reggio Preschool for 20 years in Montana and have my degree in Early Childhood Education. When my own 2 grown boys (21 &22) graduated and began their own adult lives, I sold my preschool and became a traveling Au Pair/House/Property Manager. My past few years have been spent in New Zealand, Fiji, Texas and now Washington. My duties have included: full time nannying, cooking, cleaning, attending to farm animals, gardening, doing yard and household maintenance, bookkeeping, tour guiding, and of course laundry. I LOVE kids and use positive discipline methods. I would love to work for a family where screen time is not my competition. I get messy with anything from art projects to mud, but I always clean up. I spend my free time in nature hiking, camping, rafting, fishing etc. I play piano and hand drums, love live music and can't wait to join a new volleyball league. I'm fully vaccinated and respectful to others choices.

Kelsey is AMAZING!!! She has been a huge help with my dad. As a caregiver/housekeeper, being in another state has allowed me to feel comfortable, knowing reliable eyes are on my dad. She is incredibly hardworking and reliable. She always goes above and beyond! I would highly recommend her for any of your caregiving / housekeeping / jack of all trade jobs!
