A little bit about me

Hello, my name is Kathy. As a single mother who successfully raised three children, I bring warmth, patience, and real-world parenting experience to every family I work with.

Having spent years as a teacher, I have a natural ability to connect with children of all ages, nurture their growth, & create safe, structured, & loving environments where kids truly thrive.

I am also a certified nutrition and health coach, so you can trust that your children's meals are both delicious and nourishing. I enjoy prepping wholesome, family-friendly foods that take the stress off busy parents. I'm happy to assist with light housekeeping to keep your home running smoothly, and I am comfortable around pets.

Your family's safety is my top priority. I am certified in both First Aid & CPR, giving you confidence & peace of mind every single day. I am reliable, compassionate, and fully dedicated to the children in my care.

I would love the opportunity to become a trusted part of your family.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

I was in NYC school teacher in East New York for 8 years where I taught both first and second grade. I left to start my own family and relocated to Long Island.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy all educational activities with children. I also love to go on walks, or taking them to the park so they can get out in nature. Whether it is playing a sport, playing with toys or reading books, I enjoy being active with children, giving them a break from the world of electronic devices.

The most important part about being a nanny...

What matters most to me about being a nanny is being a steady, joyful presence in a child's life.

I care deeply about creating an environment where kids feel safe and loved — because that foundation is what allows them to explore, play, and grow with confidence.

I find so much joy in the playful moments, the silly games and spontaneous fun, because that's often where the real learning happens. Nothing is more rewarding than watching a child discover something new — whether it's learning how to read, figuring out how a puzzle works, or saying a word for the first time. Those milestones feel like magic, and getting to be present for them is a privilege.

At the heart of it, I want every child in my care to feel secure, curious, and delighted by the world around them.

My experience with special needs children...

My son was on the spectrum as a toddler. My niece and nephew are both on the spectrum. This inspired me to get a NY state teaching certification in Students with Disabilities Birth-Grade 2. I worked as an ABA therapist and a SEIT for over two years. My son went on to graduate with honors from college. My niece and nephew are both college graduates as well.
