Hi! My name is Cathleen, but most of the children I nanny for, call me “nannie”. I’ve raised my own 3 children here, in Discovery Bay, and have cared for their children, birth through teenagers, as well as others through Sittercity, of all ages. I’ve spent most of my life taking care of family, and I like it! I like nursery rhymes, songs, books and playtime. Grocery shopping & playing in the park are absolute favorites for little ones. I enjoy helping young ones with their homework, to learn to actually enjoy it & to realize the value of it. I think it's important to interact with young ones, engaging them in conversations and sharing in their hobbies, or helping them to develop some!...and I love to cook. I use organic whenever I can. I actually LIKE being a homemaker, keeping things picked up & laundry & shopping. But above Read more all, I think it’s important to be kind: with your friends AND your family. And I teach that...everyday! Thank you! Cathleen~

Cathleen watches my son regularly, twice to three times a week during the past school year when I volunteered at my daughter's school, and now during the summer, once a week while I work. My son adores her, and she is so friendly and reliable. She also deals well with my chaotic schedule and is an excellent communicator!
