Hi there! My name is Kate and I'm excited to connect with families and potentially have the honor of caring for your loved one. I started as a caregiver during college about 10 years ago and LOVED it, working with both children and adults with various diagnoses and developmental disabilities. I have a degree in music therapy and have practiced in hospitals, day programs and residential facilities before moving on to management roles in group home and day program environments. I recently decided I'd like to go back to my roots with in-home caregiving and am seeking a full-time position or a few part-time ones. I am comfortable with any personal care, skill building, community engagement or enrichment activities your loved one needs to live their best life. If this sounds like what you/your family are searching for, let's chat!
