My name is Kate, and I've always been an artist and caretaker. I find that working with kids is the most life-affirming way to remain the empath I am. I'm not someone that imposes my opinion on a child, or comments unnecessarily on who they are. I see my role as the person who provides safety, engaging play, and enough space for them to build trust in themselves. I love pets, have experience navigating allergies, & re-certified for CPR. I don't have a car here.

We were so lucky to have Kate as our caregiver for our daughter from 5 months-14 months old. Kate's communication with us was always excellent. It was clear from early on that Kate had a lot of patience, empathy, and genuine care for our daughter. I would recommend her to anyone and wish her the best in whatever is next for her.
