About Cathy
Experience: 10 yrs
If you are searching for a dependable person with great references to care for your child(ren) so you can get away for a day, overnight, or a weekend or week-long trip, then look no further! I have worked with kids most of my life and still enjoy it! I begin by meeting your family, learn what your routine and discipline style is for your child(ren), and discuss any special needs/diets. Then we work together to create a cohesive schedule and plan for meals, pets, school and event pick up/drop offs. I often bring along fun age appropriate books, games and/or crafts to help pass the time and have fun. When possible, I enjoy getting everyone outside to explore. For extended stays, families will typically leave me their vehicle, with car seats installed, for ease of transporting the kids to parks and scheduled events. If they are older, I often use my SUV. When you return, you will find your home in order so your transition is as smooth and easy as possible. Looking forward to meeting!

Cathy has been a wonderful nanny for us for many years (5+). She nannied for us from infancy through toddlers on a weekly basis and now on occasion as school aged kiddos. The time, energy, and care she puts into my children is unmatched. Along with being timely and trustworthy. Cathy will ensure your children are not just cared for but enriched through the activities they do, from crafts, to outdoor play, and age appropriate learning. I could not recommend her highly enough for your childcare needs.
