A little bit about me

Hi!
My name is Kate. I grew up in Fairfield County as well as some years over overseas in England.
I am a trained chef, but my biggest passion is taking care of children. Since I was twelve I have taken on child care jobs with ease and since then have worked professionally with three families over the course of ten years. I am firm, but nurturing and loving. I truly believe that kids thrive on consistency, and if I sound like I could be a good fit for your family, I hope you will reach out!
Look forward to speaking with you!
