About Katherine

I am a patient, reliable, and compassionate caregiver and tutor with experience supporting children, teens, and older adults in daily life, learning, and transitions. I focus on dignity, emotional safety, and practical support rather than rushed or impersonal care. I have direct experience working with individuals with disabilities and complex needs, including service as a board member for Disability Rights Maryland, where I supported disability rights, accessibility, and person-centered approaches. This background helps me understand accommodations, communication differences, and individual needs. As a caregiver, I provide companionship, light household help, meal preparation, reminders, and assistance with routines. As a tutor, I support confidence, organization, and understanding, and work especially well with neurodivergent or special learners. My skills include understanding individual needs, adapting strategies, and providing hope, confidence, and endurance.
