About Katherine
Experience: 8 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello! My name is Kat, and I'm an experienced childcare provider of nearly 9 years. I am CPR and First Aid certified, as I was a lifeguard for 4 years. During my undergraduate studies at UCLA, I worked as a research assistant, gaining valuable insights that complement my passion for child development. Currently, I'm applying for Ph. D. programs in Developmental Psychology, and working with children is the perfect way to deepen my understanding of their growth. In addition to my academic background, I was a coding and statistics tutor at UCLA through the AAP program, and I volunteer at Yoga Soup. In my free time, I enjoy playing guitar, painting, reading (currently Dopamine Nation by Dr. Lembke), practicing yoga, and working on collages. With a strong foundation in research-backed parenting practices, I love creating environments that nurture children's cognitive and emotional development. I'm eager to work with a family that values growth and exploration!

Kat has watched my kids countless times from ages newborn through nine years old and I am sure she'd be fantastic with teens too! She's even travelled with us with ease and flexibility. I HIGHLY recommend Kat, she's fun, energetic, communicative, professional and trustworthy.
