About Cate

Experience: 17 yrs

Hi! I'm Cate, a mom of two (ages 8 and 10) and I recently moved to the area. Im pivoting careers, I am currently a student in an EMT certification program, and I'm starting pre-med in the fall. I am looking to help out local families with flexible afternoon care while I am home with my own children. This is a great fit for parents who need a few hours for errands, appointments, or a gym break! What I offer: Included Meals: Happy to provide a healthy snack or lunch for your little ones so you have one less thing to worry about. Fun for Kids: My 8 and 10-year-olds love having playmates, and we have plenty of activities. Since I am also a student, my schedule is best suited for afternoon so I can study in the morning but times are flexible if you have a commitment and need care. I'm looking for families who want a relaxed, neighborly environment for their kids!

I’ve known Cate my whole life. She was my primary babysitter growing up, and I always felt safe and cared for with her. Now, seeing her as a mother of two and an EMT student, I can say her dedication to safety and helping others has only grown. She is the first person I would recommend for anyone looking for a mature, capable sitter.
