Meet Cathryn

I am Cathy Finke and after 30 years of pharmaceutical management and raising 2 beautiful, successful children, my husband and I have retired to Ponte Vedra Beach. After being here 1.5 years I find that I miss interacting with children. I currently am a shephard at our church helping the choir director teach singing to his group of 8-10 elementary students. I also filled my need to contribute to young lives by helping with the church's Bible School this past summer. In order to do that the church needed to have a full background check done which I passed. I look forward to expanding my interaction with children through child care opportunities either for parents or a school. I have a history of coaching spring board diving to high schoolers, as a young woman I was a camp instructor in Massachusetts and have house sit for friends in need while Read more in Wisconsin. Being involved with children has always been a joy for me. My usual commitments are on Wednesdays which include shepharding at church as well as choir rehearsal at night. I am very flexible the other afternoons and evenings.
