Hello, my name is Kathryn! I'm 34 years old and just completed my Master of Social Work. I taught kindergarten and preschool for 7 years before that, and prior to teaching, I was working in public relations. I love exploring and learning with kids, and my teaching experience was focused on combining social and emotional wellness with project-based, exploratory learning and restorative practices. I am patient and love having fun with kids, but also am confident in setting clear boundaries and expectations with little ones that ensure safety and comfort are always the top priorities. I've worked extensively with children and adults with special needs as well, and am comfortable communicating in various ways to suit individual styles and abilities. I play the harp, paint and cook in my free time, and am passionate about fostering creativity through music and art with young children. I also love being outdoors and Read more led a nature club at school for multiple years, so I'm always looking for opportunities for kids to be scientists and learn from the world around them. I am currently looking for childcare work while I prepare to start my new job as a mental health counselor for an elementary school in the Bay Area.
