About Kathleen
Experience: 3 yrs
I am an empty nester of a wonderful 20-year-old son who is currently studying at UCSB, and live in Westlake Village with my husband, and our feisty Shih Tzu, Coco Puff. I have a strong background in music and love to foster creativity in children, as I believe they can take that joy and apply it to any passion they pursue in life. I am currently working part time as a school crossing guard, and volunteer once a week at a animal shelter in the cat and small animal division. I'm a decent cook and strive to eat and create healthy meals. I am mostly plant based but am not averse to creating meat-based meals as well. I have a clean driving record.

We’ve had the pleasure of having Kathleen care for our now toddler for nearly a year, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the love, patience, and creativity she brings every day. Kathleen has a warm and nurturing presence! She always accommodates our busy work schedules. What truly sets Kathleen apart is her integration of music into daily play. Whether it’s singing songs, introducing simple instruments, or teaching rhythm and melody in fun and age-appropriate ways, she has sparked a real love for music in our baby. It’s been amazing to see how quickly our baby has learned new songs and started recognizing musical patterns. Kathleen is extremely reliable, communicative, and genuinely cares about our baby. We feel lucky to have found someone who not only ensures our child’s well-being but also nurtures their creativity and joy. Highly recommended!
