A little bit about me
I am responsible, reliable, caring, and compassionate, with excellent childcare skills and knowledge. Throughout my ten years of childcare I have obtained extensive experience and knowledge that has developed my passion for child rearing. I love everything about raising children; caring and teaching them is something that I enjoy and feel compelled to do. I feel that my vast experience with childcare and my caring personalities separates myself from others. Caring for children is more than just a job for me; it is doing something I love, while seeking new opportunities to broaden my vast experiences with child rearing.

A little bit about me
My name is Kathryn, and I look forward to working with your family! With a strong background in both academics and childcare, I am confident that I can provide a nurturing, responsible, and enriching environment for your children.
I am just completing my Bachelor of Arts at the University of California with a major in Sociology this June Cum Laude. My studies have deepened my understanding of human development, health, and communication.
I’ve enjoyed working with families in both long-term and short-term roles. Most recently, I worked as a nanny for two children (ages 4 and 2). I supported their growth through structured learning activities, ensured safe transportation to their events, and created fun, age-appropriate experiences tailored to their interests.
My strengths lie in creating supportive, structured spaces where children feel safe and encouraged to grow. I’m well-organized, patient, creative, and genuinely love building strong connections with kids and their families.

Hire a toddler nanny with great references
Nanny Lauren
"I’m happy to recommend Lauren. She is thoughtful, caring, and attentive to my daughter needs. She listens carefully to directions and is dependable about following routines and instructions. She has a wonderful ability to comfort my child when upset, making her feel safe and secure. We still use Lauren on some babysitting opportunities and would recommend her to another family."
- Audrey
Nanny Ruby
"Ruby was the most flexible and patient nanny I have ever had! She made my kids so happy and they waited for her to arrive everyday. Ruby would take my kids to the park, get them ice cream, and let my kids convince her to play any game🤣 I just became a stay-at-home mom, so I no longer need a nanny. Please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions on Ruby, but I would 100% recommend!!"
