Meet Katherine

  • Speaks English
  • Has a car

I am high energy, fun loving, and responsible. I don't like to sit around watching television. If your children spend an evening with me most likely we will paint, draw, play music, write short stories, make arts and crafts, or possibly even bake cookies.  I also love visiting the many museums around the city and outdoor activities. I feel the best way for children to learn is through play and/or direct interaction with the world around them. My family and I love adventure. I've been a nanny for 12 years and for the past 6 have hosted a share in my home. I live in Bridgeport and am looking to host a share in my home. We would really like to find a long term relationship with a family.

Katherine was a big hit with my little ones. This was my first time using sitter city and Katherine was awesome! She put my mind at ease with text and picture updates:) She did well with my 7 month old who doesn't tolerated long stretches without me. I look forward to using her again.
