About Catherine

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

"Integrity" is one word to best describe me. "Compassionate" is the second word. I have been a caregiver for over 20 years and have vast experience with infants, preschool, grade school & high school age. I consider myself a nurturing, fun, smart, reliable caregiver, who is also a great listener. I enjoy making learning a game full of fun and praise. Being creative both outdoors and in, reading, music, games, art, cooking and sports or just quiet times are several things I like to include. We have 5 adult children of our own (college grads) and I am CPR certified because of my Dental background of 15 years in both clinical & management. I can provide excellent references and hope to speak with you soon. I am also fully vaccinated & boosted. Cathy

Cathy has been taking care of our 2 & 1/2 year-old son for about the past 8 months over which time we have felt very pleased and confident in the quality of care he has received. After initially reviewing Cathy's online profile and credentials, we anticipated that she would be a good caretaker for children in general; however, after meeting her, we could tell early on that she is also able to understand & appreciate our son for his own specific, unique traits and meaningfully connect with him on a personal level. In addition to the strong bond/balance of authority and camaraderie Cathy has established with our son, she is also extremely reliable, communicative, respectful, and receptive when dealing with our family as a whole. We feel very fortunate to have Cathy and hold her in very high regard, both professionally and personally.
