Hello! My name is Kate. I am 28 years old, and was born and raised in the Seattle, WA area. I have 16 years paid experience working with children. I have cared for kids ages 6 months-12 years, and up to 5 kiddos at a time as a private nanny. I worked 9 months as a co-lead teacher at a daycare and worked in a classroom of up to 14 toddlers, but ultimately prefer nannying privately because of the more personal care I can give. I believe in positive reenforcement and flexibility while enforcing solid boundaries. I love helping kids learn about the world around them! My current family is sending their little one to daycare in the new year, so I am looking for a new family to join in February 2024. Many references available upon request! I will pass a background check and have my own transportation. Thank you for reading!
Kate is wonderful with our two year old! She always brings a positive, calm, and patient energy to work. She is a good communicator and we appreciate her abilities to navigate and deescalate big emotions and mood swings that accompany a two year old. She is creative with activities for our little one and respects/follows our approach to limited screen time and lots of outdoor time. She is a joy to share our space and our little one with! (Our kiddo loves her!)
