Hi! I’m Kathryn, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a lifelong love for working with children—and the daughter of a Montessori teacher, so supporting young minds and hearts has always been part of my world. I’ve been babysitting since I was a teen and have experience with kids ages 2 to 13. Professionally, I've worked as a child and adolescent therapist, helping kids navigate emotional regulation, social skills, and behavioral challenges in both clinic and school-based settings. I bring a calm, creative, and trauma-informed approach to every family I work with. My style blends playfulness with structure and patience with presence. I’m CPR and First Aid certified, and I’m very comfortable supporting neurodiverse kids or those with emotional needs. I love being a sitter because it allows me to combine my clinical expertise with my passion for building meaningful, joyful connections with kids and families.
