A little bit about me

I have lived my whole life is the same small town, and I believe that I have reached a point in my life that I possess enough experience to start my next chapter. I currently work as a Life Skills Coach at a local high school with multiple special needs students who have responded very positive to my presence (higher test scores, improved attitude control, happier demeanor in the classroom, etc...) I spent a majority of my time in high school babysitting children of all ages, and covering all duties including; but not limited to, transportation, meal preparation, educating, special needs, and housekeeping. At the end of my senior year, I moved into my own apartment where I was watch 3-4 children throughout the work week for parents living in the apartment complex, or ones who had previously met me. My references include people who are very successful and prestigious. They would give an excellent review of my professionalism, willingness to learn, and my ability to work with children.

"I met Evan when he moved in next to me. On our first encounter, he was bringing me up some food he had cooked to introduce himself (something I had not seen anyone do except for on TV.) At that time, I was dealing with some issues at home and really needed someone who could watch my 3 year old son at various times. He was practically on-call due to him living underneath me and the welcoming personality he had. He was an incredible influence on my son, to the point where he wanted to stay with Evan instead of coming home with Mama. I was very lucky to have someone like Evan to help me out and build a friendship with. He is quiet at first but I consider him to be one of the most genuine, dependable people I have ever had the privilege of knowing. 10/10 would recommend."

A little bit about me

CURRENT NANNY/INFANT CARE SPECIALIST, FORMER PRESCHOOL TEACHER, GUARDIAN OF SELF-ESTEEM. Life-long experience, 5 years former preschool teacher, special diets personal chef and all-around responsible, reliable and awesome person. I'm adept at reading infants' needs and the comfort level of children, and responding excellently.

I provide an outstanding alternative for families, with my ability to step in with a grandmotherly presence of love, support and expertise for a new mom trying to develop her own confidence and find her new rhythm. I am experienced in sleep-training, potty-training and child nutrition/ health and am ridiculously prompt and reliable. Infant Child CPR Certified. I'm currently with a family several days a week and looking to meet new families for the other 1 or 2 days (or eventually more) in Manhattan or Riverdale. Reach out if interested!

"It’s hard to put into words how incredible of a nanny Kathleen is. She has been at our home a few days a week with my daughter since she was 3 months and now my son (who is six months)— my daughter is 2.5 years old. She is family to us. As soon as she meets a newborn she immediately and intuitively knows what they need. She comforts them. My daughter waits excitedly each day for “Gaga” to arrive, knowing the day will be filled with books, crafts, and imaginative activities. (Seriously—you should see what she can create with some string and a couple of command hooks!) She is also an incredible cook, who has helped my daughter develop a wonderful relationship with food and has even helped me and my husband with the same. If you need someone that can be in your house and, from the moment you have to be away, you can know that you have absolute peace of mind that your children are loved and cared for, then Kathleen is the nanny for you."
