Experience: 10 yrs
I am a newly retired preschool teacher who has been in the child development field for over 30 years. I have taken care of children from ages 3 months through 10 years old. I have also been a preschool director and a director assistant at another school. I am very loving and nurturing. I am certified in CPR and First Aid.
Finding Kathy as our daughter's nanny has been a wonderful blessing for our family. From the moment we met her, she has had such a warm and caring demeanor with our children. She began working with our daughter when she was 4 months old, and she was so gentle and nurturing while helping us follow a feeding and nap routine. Now that our daughter is older, she walks her to the neighborhood playground daily, weather permitting, which my daughter looks forward to greatly everyday. She is equally great with our older children, playing with them outside and putting them down for naps. She is energetic and engaging with our children, and is definitely not one to be on her phone while watching them. She has started every shift arriving earlier than her scheduled time, even when we had to temporarily relocate further away during home repairs. She has been extremely flexible with my work schedule, sometimes accommodating schedule changes on short notice. She always helps keep our place tidy after playtime and meals. She truly has felt like an extension of our family and treats our children as such. While we are so sad to have to let her go, to start our daughter in preschool, I hope that she finds a family who will appreciate her as much as we have.
