About Cortlynn
Experience: 10 yrs
Hey, I'm Cortlynn. Just a little bit about me: I'm a mother to one amazingly cool almost 10-year-old. I have over 15 years of experience working with children of all ages and have had the pleasure to serve as an educator, mentor and friend. I have worked with a youth organization in RI where I have assisted with homework, transportation and college readiness. I've also worked as a teacher's assistant and a lead instructor in a summer program where I put together lesson plans and weekly themes. My goal first and foremost is to always ensure that the kids I work with are comfortable, safe and having fun. I strive to help build their confidence, foster their creativity and create a fun space to learn. Additionally, it's to provide the families I service with support and a space where I can build trust. If you'd like to know more about me and want to chat to see if we would be a good fit, please feel free to reach out. Thank You!

Beyond her caring nature, she brings joy and humor to every room she enters. Children are naturally drawn to her because she meets them where they are — playful when they need to play, calm and reassuring when they need support. She understands that children thrive in environments that are both fun and safe, and she effortlessly creates that balance. She is also a wonderful mother to her own beautiful 9-year-old daughter. She leads with love, sets thoughtful boundaries and nurtures her daughter's growth in every way. Her experience as a mother makes her especially in sync with the needs of children of all ages and temperaments. Typically I do not give my trust lightly, but I trust her completely with my own 9-year-old son. Knowing he is in her care brings me a genuine peace of mind. Any family would be fortunate to have her as their babysitter, and I recommend her with the highest confidence.
