"Catalina nannied my toddler for about a year. We would've worked together longer but had to unfortunatley stop care due to the sudden pandemic shutdowns. When testing and health measures were more certain we asked her to come back, but she had already taken a job somewhere else. She was very kind and patient with my smart and sometimes sassy girl. A typical day for them looked like; walks around the neighborhood, park trips, making her lunch, baking, art, and lots of imaginative play. Something I really appreciated about Catalina is that she was always honest with the kind of day they had had. She filled me in on all the fun, and also shared the harder moments. If my daughter had bumped her head, scraped her knee, had a tantrum, etc, Catalina filled me in. She also always took advice/feedback on how to handle those harder moments and was able to shadow the parenting styles we use. We miss her and wish her well with her next family!"
