About Katherine

I'm an experienced, creative, and dependable caregiver with a background in education, behavior support, and kid-focused community programming, as well as firsthand experience raising my own children. I bring a balance of warmth, creativity, structure, and maturity to childcare. I love arts and crafts, music, outdoor activities, and active play. I enjoy staying active with kids, and believe children thrive when they feel engaged, emotionally safe, and genuinely supported. My approach is informed by modern child development and social-emotional learning practices, with a focus on positive guidance, communication, empathy, and consistency. I'm patient, attentive, safety-focused, and do not leave children unsupervised. I'm also comfortable with pets, light cooking and meal prep, transportation, homework help, and household support. I speak fluent English, advanced Spanish, and Italian, and enjoy bringing creativity, culture, and communication into everyday activities with children.
