About Kathleen
Experience: 5 yrs

Hi! About me: Being a child at heart myself, I like to get to know the children I nanny for and have fun! I am patient, compassionate and rarely allow myself to get super worked up over small things. I am super adventurous and light hearted while also maintaining responsibility and discipline. Family history: I am 1 of 5 daughters and because I am significantly older than all of them, I helped raise them. I have worked as a care taker for 10+ years and can confidently say it is one of the favorite things I do. I have also nannied for multiple other families in between helping my family. Nannying history: I have been nannying for other families since I was 17. The ages of the children typically range from 1-15. I am not the kind of nanny that will just sit around until it's time to go. I can do some light cleaning and light cooking if needed. P. S. I am in the process of getting CPR/first aid certified. :)

I had the absolute pleasure of hiring Katie through Care.com, and I can confidently say she has been an incredible caregiver for our family. From our very first interaction, she exuded warmth, professionalism, and an instinctive ability to connect, not just with our children but with our entire household. Katie has been caring for our newborn, our 3- and 5-year-old children, and even our energetic Labrador, and she has handled everything with remarkable ease and patience. Her ability to juggle the needs of a newborn—navigating feedings, naps, and soothing techniques, while still keeping our older kids engaged and happy is truly impressive. She is attentive, gentle, and incredibly knowledgeable about infant care, always ensuring that our baby is safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Beyond that, her ability to bond with our dog was just as remarkable. Our pup absolutely adores her, and she has gone above and beyond to make sure he feels included, she seamlessly integrated pet care into her routine without missing a beat. Her reliability, kindness, and natural ability to create a safe, nurturing, and structured environment have been a gift to our family. She is always punctual, communicates effectively, and proactively finds ways to make our lives easier. She brings such positive energy, and it’s clear that she genuinely loves what she does. I cannot recommend Katie highly enough. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your children as if they were her own while also being a wonderful presence in your home she is the perfect choice!
