Hello!!!!! My name is Kate Harvey. I am a woman of grace, love, and patient. I adore children so much; my kind and nurturing ways help me care for and connect with children on all different levels. I really do believe that every single interaction with a child will affect them- I strive for all my interactions with children to be those of both a positive and loving nature. It is important to me that while taking care of a child, each and every one of their needs are met. I strive to go above and beyond these needs not only for the children, but also for the family. If there are errands that need to be done, cleaning to do, or general light housework that needs attention, I am more than willing to complete these tasks upon request. I have multiple years of experience caring for children in all Read more different settings. My main jobs have been being a nanny, babysitter, mommy's helper, camp counselor, and volunteer. It is important to me to develop strong bonds with both the children and the parents. I am extremely loving- I find that my will to help people has made my heart so big. I believe in the importance of education, health, and happiness- in my caretaking ways, I have always tried my hardest to set the best example for children- I try my best to be someone that they can look up to at all times. I am CPR and First Aid Certified. I have my own means of transportation- my driver's license and insurance information can be provided to you upon request, as well as a resume and references through email in an attached file. I look forward to hearing from each and every one of you who want the best for their sweet children!

We used Kate to watch our three dogs, she was great! Was in constant communication while we were away. She was flexible with our needs, working around our schedules to accommodate. Would highly recommend her!
