About Kate

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi! I'm an outdoorsy, book-loving boy mom with 20 years of teaching/caregiving experience. I was a special education autism support teacher until my oldest son was born in 2007. Then I founded a social skills group therapy practice in 2007 which I operated until I sold it in 2017. I have also been a Sunday school teacher/religious educator/VBS coordinator. My greatest joy has been nurturing & homeschooling my 4 sons who are now ages 17, 15, 14, and 10! I love every age & stage of childhood and have worked with them all, both personally and professionally. I treat every child in my care as if they were my own.

Kate has been an absolute gem for our family. She is warm, dependable, and instantly made a connection with our 2-year-old. Her background in special education has been invaluable, especially in supporting our child’s speech delay. We noticed improvements within just a few days of her working with us! Kate has a natural ability to engage with children in a way that is both nurturing and encouraging. It’s clear she genuinely cares and takes the time to create a positive, fun, and safe environment. We trust her completely and feel so lucky to have her. Highly recommend!
