Meet Catherine
- Comfortable with pets
Hiya! My name is Catherine, I’m 25 years old and I live in the Newark DE area. I’m the 3rd oldest of 6 girls. I know. I’m a very energetic person! I’ve played sports my whole life such as soccer, swim, volleyball, and basketball. I adore the outdoors, hiking is a hobby of mine along with art (painting). Becoming a caregiver of some sort has always been an interest of mine. My goal is to help children and families in need around the world by entering in programs to go volunteer in. But before I can do that, I want to help my local families as well. I want to give a helping hand to families that need that extra hand. I can work early morning, late evenings, or even over night if needed. Last minute night out? No problem! Help is on the way dear!

Absolutely the best sitter, we were so lucky to find her! Cat started working with us when my son was only 5 months old (he's almost 3 now!) and she was a lifesaver to me as an anxious first time mom. She brings a calm, warm energy that helps kids feel safe and comfortable. She always does a great job keeping my kiddo happy, safe, and engaged and filling me in on their adventures and his mood and needs when I get home. We've used her for day time shifts, date nights, and even our wedding! She's the ideal person to care for your kids when you need an extra set of hands - equally adept at playing goofy games as she is at rocking them gently to sleep. 10/10, would wholeheartedly recommend.
