I am honored to be considered for caring for your child! I am a passionate health advocate and social worker. I graduated with my MSW from WashU in 2021, with a Child Behavioral Health and Health policy emphasis. I specialize in working with children with neurodivergence, and utilize a wholistic, strengths-based care approach. I am passionate about providing a safe, caring and nurturing environment for each child I work with. I think it is vital to cherish the fun and curiosity of every kid, and nourish exploration of creativity, confidence and self-efficacy. Previous work with children includes the Crisis Nursery in St. Louis for ages 0-12 and continued nannying and baby-sitting for children ages 0-10. I helped run a Summer Treatment Program for Children with ADHD & related disorders in Highland Park, IL, as well as an After School Program for children in grades 1-5. I look forward to meeting Chicago neighbors! Sliding scale available upon request.

We hired Cate to watch my 4 month old daughter when I went back to work and we could not have been happier with her! She was always on time and even arrived a few minute early. She was very organized, followed our instructions to a tee, and always kept us updated on daughter's day and schedule. She would also send us the cutest pictures while we was gone. The best part is my daughter adores her! She always gets the biggest smile on her face when she sees Cate and we can tell they developed a great bond. Cate knows a ton about children and was always doing developmentally appropriate activities with my daughter. You could not go wrong hiring Cate and we feel very lucky to have someone so great watching our daughter!
