Experience: 10 yrs
I've had multiple years of caring for babies, kids and pets of all ages, not to mention raising two of my own. I have my CPR certification and basic first aid knowledge. Childcare is my happy place. I'm a born nurturer with experience, patience & reliability. I like to keep the TV off and the mind active. I also believe that down time is important for development. Routine and boundaries are what give kids a sense of safety and ease. Infants are strolled outdoors every day and always read and talked to. Cuddles are a given. I'm a healthy eater and think that when given a choice, kids prefer "real" food. Reading out loud every day is a part of my philosophy too. I'm animated and give voices and expressions to the characters. Questions are encouraged and finding the answers rather than being given them is fun and empowering! I have a natural, relaxed approach to child rearing and care. We're all a part of this wonderful "village" on earth and connected to it and each other in some way.
We could not be happier with the job that Kathleen has done with our newborn daughter. She has all of the qualities that one looks for in a caregiver: she is smart, kind, flexible, and intuitive. And most importantly, she is amazing with babies - she picks up on our daughter's cues and anticipates her needs. I can't recommend her highly enough.
