Hello there! My name is Kate Flaherty, and I am currently a Drexel Student studying to become a physician's assistant! I live in West Philadelphia, and have a long history of working with kids. My childcare experience ranges from casual babysitting jobs and working as a camp counselor, to assisting children with special needs and working as a substitute teacher for children aged 0-6. If you are looking for a reliable, kind-hearted and honest nanny, babysitter or caregiver, please reach out! I am fully vaccinated against COVID-19, currently have access to a vehicle, and love working with children!
