Hi there! I am currently in my final year of law school at Gonzaga University, and I have lived in Spokane since July 2021. I've worked with kids throughout most of my life. Ever since 6th grade, I volunteered through my church for things like Sunday School, VBS, and nursery care during services. I tutored for a family in Minnesota this past summer, and I completed the American Red Cross babysitting course. I am also CPR certified, have completed basic life support for healthcare professionals, and completed my EMR certification in Minnesota. I love the outdoors, cooking, reading, doing crafts, and exploring the Spokane community! Encouraging the creativity & wonder of the children I work with is so important, and I love supporting them as they find their passions in life. I have experience working with disabilities, behavioral challenges, special medical needs, and unique family dynamics. I love animals, so Read more pet-friendly households are absolutely welcome!

Catherine was amazing! I had zero worries leaving my 2 year old with her. She was very responsive during the interview process and kept me up to date on everything she was doing with my son. She even handled it snowing in the middle of April when they were out at the park. I would hire Catherine again in a heart beat.
