About Catherine

Experience: 10 yrs

I am a licensed midwife and have taken time off from being on call to focus on myself. I desire to work with children again and am seeking a position with the right family. I've always had a love for children being with children and watching them grow and develop, and knowing I was part of their fostering, is the greatest reward anyone could ask for. This is what had me seek a degree in Early Childhood Education which I completed in 2011. I have extensive experience working with children and families since 2001. From babysitting, to nannying, to being a lead and assistant teacher of multiple classrooms to then helping families have their own babies and working tons with newborns.

There’s no one like Catherine. She cares deeply and my kids absolutely adore her. She is trustworthy, reliable and the kind of person you want in your home. She cared for my kids on a weekly basis and they always looked forward to the day Catherine was coming!
