About Kathryn
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Greetings, my name is Kate, and I have a lot of experience working with children of all ages, for over 20 years. Most of my experience is with preschool, elementary and middle school age children. However, I also have experience working with newborns. My experience started with caretaking and then I became an art teacher in 2006, and since then I have taught and assisted teachers in a variety of settings, including in the home. I am a certified teacher in the state of PA: Level II Teaching Certification for Elementary Education, Art (K-12), Math (7-9), Language Arts (7-9) My clearances are up to date and I can furnish copies if you are interested: PA State Police Check, PA Child Abuse Check, and FBI Fingerprinting.

Kate is truly a gem. She nannied for us for two weeks over the summer and has since done a few date nights. We have a crazy household with three kids under four and two cats. Somehow Kate managed to make order out of chaos every day she was with us. She is warm and fun, but has exactly what it takes to keep three wild toddlers in line. Our kids took to her right away and now light up with she walks in the door. Additionally, she kept helpful logs of her days with the kids so we knew how meals and naps went. She always helped to straighten up the kitchen and helped us stay on top of our never ending piles of laundry. She’s also been able to help out on a last minute basis when our other childcare arrangements fell through. We’ve been on Care for several years and Kate stands out as being one of the best. We truly consider ourselves lucky to have met her!
