About Kathryn

Experience: 10 yrs

Ever since I was a young girl, I have loved children. My mother said that I "mothered" my two younger siblings. While growing up, I babysat as much as possible. After I married, I was anxious to have children of my own; had 2 girls and 1 boy. I was a very involved hands-on mom. I loved being home and raising my children. I enjoyed teaching them all how to read and swim in deep water by age four. I also taught Sunday school for young children. When my older 2 children began school, I started keeping 1 or 2 kids . For 20 summers, I taught swimming lessons for kids. When my son started school, I volunteered at my children's schools, did some nanny work, and substitute taught in the school system for pre-k to 12th grade. I have held 3 live-in nanny positions in the DC area. I have kept and cared for children since 1993. Children are drawn to me and I am drawn to them. I treat children like my own.

We hired Kathy several times since February 2024. Our daughter was an infant at start and is now a toddler. We continue to hire Kathy as needed. Kathy is great at following routines, keeping our baby engaged and is very creative. She's good at finding creative ways to keep our baby learning and playing throughout the day. We continue to hire Kathy as needed since we value the care she provides to our little one.
