About Kathleen

Experience: 10 yrs

I am a mom to three and I have 5 grandkids. I love kids and considered myself a good working mom. I took them to scouts, sports, church and anywhere else they needed or wanted to go. They are all out of the home but I enjoy babies and children of all ages. I have many years experience watching babies and children. I just did it for free over the years. I love being with my grandchildren when I was up North. My older son is allergic to penicillin and allergic to bees. They have had stitches and the normal child injuries. I do not have First Aid or CPR but after raising them, I think I can handle pretty much anything. I also have watched my friend's daughter who is deaf. I love to be outside. I read and play games, color and paint, sidewalk chalk. When age appropriate, I will do numbers, letters, colors and shapes. I talk and sing a lot with the children. I will also help with potty training. I would prefer part time.

We’ve had the absolute pleasure of having Kathy as our family’s babysitter Monday through Thursday for the past couple years, and we cannot speak highly enough of her. From the very beginning, Kathy has brought a warm, nurturing presence into our home and quickly became someone we completely trust and rely on—not just as a caregiver, but as someone who feels like part of our family. Kathy started with us when our oldest daughter was about to turn one, and now, at two and a half, she adores Kathy and looks forward to playing with her each day. Our youngest, now 8 months old, lights up every time she sees her. Kathy is incredibly attentive and patient with both children, always tuned in to their needs and development. She engages them with age-appropriate play, encourages learning through gentle guidance, and brings a calm, reassuring energy to every day. One of the qualities we’ve most appreciated is Kathy’s flexibility. Whether we've had last-minute schedule changes or needed extra help during busy weeks, she has always worked with us willingly and with a smile. Her dependability and consistent presence have provided a sense of stability that has meant the world to our family. We are so grateful to have found someone as kind, experienced, and trustworthy as Kathy and are sad to be losing her as we are moving four hours away. She has helped shape our daughters' early experiences in the most positive and loving way, and we feel incredibly lucky to have her in our lives.
