"Cate has been my primary childcare provider since my oldest son was born 18 years ago. From the first day her devotion to he job was obvious. When I later received primary custody of my son Cate was essential. My son had behavioral and psychological problems and Cate was more than capable of handling these issues. She went out of her way to educate herself on my son's diagnoses so that she could provide the best possible care. She worked with me and my son's therapist to develop strategies to assist my son and she always followed the rules I established for my son. She is also willing to help with work around the home like dishes, laundry, and cleaning. As a single father who was overwhelmed a lot this helped more than I can say. Even when I remarried I kept Cate as my primary childcare provider- especially after my wife and I had two more kids. Cate is the only person outside of family that I would trust to care for all three of my children. She is truly an exceptional person."

"Cate has been an asset to my family. She will still be my first call if I need childcare. However, both my children are now teenagers and no longer require regular babysitting.
My children refer to her as Aunt Cate and view her as family. I’m sure her willingness to go the extra mile and truly take an interest in the children helps this.
Cate is a great communicator and has been flexible as my family’s childcare needs have changed over the years. She has always followed my direction for parenting preferences and standards- and I’m picky when it comes to my kids! Cate consistently meets their needs physically and emotionally. Her approach is kind and caring without being a pushover. She’s been available during emergencies and has been calm cool and collected during these situations.
Furthermore, as a parent safety is always a high priority. Cate passed every background check and has no history with child welfare."

More About Me
The most important part about being a nanny...
The most important part of being a nanny is being able to help a family and assist them in raising their children. I believe strongly in doing whatever I can to help a family and consider myself lucky to be in a position to do so. I really enjoy working with children of all ages and take pleasure in watching them grow. I love playing games (my husband says I'm a kid at heart) but I also value the importance of teaching children. Education, manners, and respect are all aspects of childcare that I believe are important for children to develop. I really enjoy most aspects of caring for children.
My experience with special needs children...
I have experience working with children with special needs, including but not limited to: premature babies, Autism, ADHD, Operational Defiance Disorder, Dyslexia, seizure disorders, and multiple sclerosis.
The most important part about being a nanny...
My favorite memories with the children I care for is taking them on special adventures. If they do good on their report cards they earn a one on one day out where they can pick the activity. The opportunity to spend time with the children doing things they love and create lasting memories for them and me is definitely the most memorable part of being a nanny. Also, both children's grades have significantly improved since we started this plan and I'm all for ideas that encourage children to do well in school.
