About Kathryn
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hello! I'm Katy - an experienced childcare provider originally from Ireland, with over 15 years of experience supporting children from infancy through the teenage years. I have a Master's degree, certifications in First Aid, CPR, and AED usage, and I'm currently completing a Children's Learning and Behavior Specialist Certificate to deepen my knowledge of child development. I've worked across a wide range of settings, including managing a daycare for children aged 1-6, supporting elementary students as a classroom aide, and teaching swimming at the YMCA. I also spent several years as a professional scuba diving instructor, helping children build confidence, resilience, and a love of adventure. My caregiving style blends structure with creativity - I love engaging with children's interests through imaginative play, outdoor exploration, arts and crafts, and real-world learning, while encouraging independence, emotional growth, and problem-solving skills.

Katy has been absolutely incredible and has gone above and beyond with our kiddos, one of whom is a 5 year old with medical complexities and special needs. She is revolutionizing our household in the sweetest way possible and I couldn't speak highly enough of her. I wish she could spend every day with us!
