About Kathleen

Experience: 12 yrs

Nurturing a child's curiosity and watching them reach new milestones is my greatest passion. With 12 years of experience caring for children ranging from infants to pre-teens, I offer a patient, creative, and reliable approach to childcare. I hold a college degree and maintain current CPR Training and First Aid Training. Because I am a skilled swimmer, I am happy to provide swimming supervision for your little ones. I am comfortable caring for up to four children and am happy to assist with meal preparation, carpooling, and light housekeeping. I am very comfortable enforcing your household rules and always follow your preferred communication method to ensure you stay updated on your child's day. I truly look forward to becoming a trusted partner in your family's daily life and helping your children thrive.

Kathy cared for our two young boys from August 2020 through September 2021 during a particularly challenging time for our family, when I was completing a fellowship in New York City while my wife worked full-time in Rhode Island. From day one, she was dependable, organized, trustworthy, and incredibly caring. What impressed us most was Kathy's initiative and commitment to our children. Our oldest son had recently been diagnosed with ADHD at age four, and Kathy took it upon herself to learn effective strategies to support him with patience, consistency, and compassion, all while providing wonderful care for our two-year-old son. She handled both children with confidence, warmth, and professionalism. Kathy quickly became an invaluable part of our family. She always went above and beyond, communicated well, and gave us complete peace of mind knowing our boys were in such capable hands. Even years later, she has remained a good friend, and we continue to think very highly of her. We recommend Kathy without hesitation to any family looking for a reliable, organized, proactive, and genuinely caring nanny. Any family would be fortunate to have her.
