About Kathryn
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I am a seasoned early childhood educator with over a decade of experience as a lead teacher in infant, toddler, twos, and preschool classrooms. I have been responsible for class sizes ranging from 4 infants to 21 preschool students. I have held Nanny positions for various families from which I have several letters of recommendation from the families I've served throughout my 10 plus year career. As Program Director, I mentored teens and college students in the field of education and childcare. My certifications include but are not limited to, my CDA in Infant & Toddler Education, 90 Hours in PreSchool Methods & Education, Supporting Breastfeeding, and Infant/Adult CPR/AED/First Aid. I'm currently pursuing my AMS Credential also. I have my own car for reliable transportation and I am happy to help with light household tidying (washing dishes, wiping down surfaces, sweeping/mopping the kitchen, and laundry for the children.) I am comfortable with pets and especially love dogs.

We hired Kathryn recently to do babysitting for our 2 year old son in the evenings and over the weekends when work gets overwhelming. COVID has made it extremely stressful to find appropriate childcare; our son is unfortunately too young to get vaccinated, so it was important for us to find someone who would put his health above all else by being extra safe and dependable. With Kathryn, we found all those qualities and more. We felt an instant connection. She is honest, organized, highly communicative, hardworking, and very passionate about her work. While her priority is always our son, when he is down for his nap, she does not rest until the house is completely spotless, going above and beyond her duties. She is always keen on helping out, and her attention to detail for upholding our sons' daily routine and for taking care of the house is truly unmatched. We are so relieved to have found such an amazing care taker for our son, and would highly recommend Kathryn to anyone looking for help.
