About Catalina

Hi! I'm a dedicated and compassionate childcare provider with over four years of experience caring for children of all ages, including those with autism and special needs. I've worked as a lead Pre-K teacher, a pediatric medical assistant, and I'm currently in nursing school pursuing my passion for helping others-especially children. I'm CPR/BLS certified, TB tested, a non-smoker, and I have reliable transportation. I can confidently assist with light housekeeping, meal prep, outings, and bedtime routines. I also have experience with wound care, medication reminders, and am comfortable with pets. My personal and professional background. I'm a mom to a premature son who's been supported by specialists and currently receives speech and occupational therapy. Because of this, I deeply understand the importance of patience, structure, and calm care-especially for kids with sensory needs or developmental differences. I tailor my care to each child's interests and needs.
