About Catherine

Experience: 10 yrs

Nurturing children and witnessing their growth has been my professional focus for the past 10 years. My background includes a college degree with a focus on Early Child Development, which informs my approach to fostering a supportive environment for children aged 0 to 11. I am patient, calm, and highly creative, often using my imagination to lead engaging outdoor sports, board games, or educational activities. I hold CPR Training and First Aid Training certifications to ensure a safe setting for up to four children. I am comfortable enforcing your household rules consistently. I prioritize your preferences for communication, whether through daily verbal updates or text messages. **Summary:** I am a dedicated, experienced caregiver committed to making a positive impact on your child's development through creative play and reliable, professional care. I look forward to becoming a trusted partner in your family's daily life.

Our family has known Catherine for years and I’m thrilled to give her 5 stars! I wish I could give her 100 ⭐️’s! She is a loving caregiver to my two daughters! Always punctual, flexible (and even is sometimes available at the last minute), focused on providing fun activities, and genuinely invested in their growth along with our family in general. We’re so lucky to know her because of all these wonderful attributes and more! You won’t be disappointed if you choose to work with Cat!
