Hi, I'm Cathy! I've been a Daycare Teacher & Teacher Assistant at Merryhill School to look after students from K - 5th grade and I’ve worked as a Behavior Technician to work with children ages 4-8 diagnosed with behavioral disorders to provide play therapy. I'm experienced in planning activities in Art, Math, and English for my previous Daycare program. I love working with children and my empathy, kindness, understanding, and experience with diversity would make me a great fit for your needs!

Cathy is amazing! I needed to find an amazing person to watch my daughter on short notice and Cathy was a godsend. She's very organized, very sweet, and paid so much attention to my daughter. I will definitely be hiring her again!! It was such a pleasure.
