Hello, my name is Catherine! I recently graduated PA school and am now a licensed physician assistant. I am super excited to start my first job as a PA in the new year! I am available until then for occasional date nights or continuous care. Prior to starting PA school, I cared for children from 13 mo-4 yrs. I have many years of experience working with kids as a camp counselor and as a behavior technician at a school for children with autism and other developmental disabilities. I was previously a CNA and have ACLS/BLS certifications. I am patient, enthusiastic, and reliable, and I love working with kids! I am happy to help with other tasks or take on additional responsibilities while taking great care of your children!
We hired Catherine for weekly Child Care for our son who is 14 months old. We do not have family nearby, so this was the first time that our son was going to be a part from us (mom and dad). As expected, he cried off and on during Catherine's first visit. She was kind and patient, letting him work through it while being there for support. By the end of that visit when we returned, he was on her lap playing and loving her. They quickly formed a bond because of how fantastic she is. She takes him to the library (just themselves and for story hour with other babies), beach, for walks, coffee shop, and more. Our son went from crawling to standing / starting to walk within her first ~4 visits, which we can really only attribute to her because it happened so quickly and she works with him on these skills. She is always on time, dependable, and sends us pictures and updates. We love Catherine and have nothing but great things to say about her!! We would definitely hire her again!
