Meet Katherine

  • Speaks English
  • Comfortable with pets

I’m a centered, creative, energetic and fun nanny who loves to interact with kids! I’ve also been a mindfulness instructor and mentor - for nearly twenty years now - so I would be happy to introduce your kiddo(s) to basic mindfulness techniques, to add more calm to your home. (I was actually the first secular mindfulness chaplain, at NYU’s Global Center for Academic and Spiritual Life.) Cultivating a sense of presence through simple breathing techniques and other means is scientifically shown to reduce stress and increase attention span. Look forward to, hopefully, serving your family and celebrating life together, in the near future!
