Meet Kathea
- Comfortable with pets
I have experience nannying a 6m baby girl for the span of about a year and a glowing reference to back it up. I have loads of babysitting experience of all ages (also backed by references) and a rich educational background in child development considering I finished my bachelors in speech-language pathology in 2023. My most recent work experience was as a Registered Care Technician and a Resident Services Coordinator for the Memory Care Unit of an Assisted Living facility. I was on the front lines of caregiving seniors in the most latent stages of dementia and hospice.Currently, I work part-time as a Registered Behavior Therapist for neurodivergent children, and have loved becoming knowledgeable in challenging behaviors as well as building the skills necessary to minimize them happening. I take great pride in demonstrating the utmost display of patience and love in all care I provide and find great pleasure Read more in helping everyone who may need it. Outside of profession, I am a creative mind who loves life! I crochet, play beach volleyball, and am learning how to play the bass. I believe I have valuable energy to share with a family who is open to receiving it and hope to develop strong relationships from this opportunity. I commit to giving nothing less than the best care possible and strive to go above and beyond in whatever tasks I perform. I am CPR/AED/first aid certified for all ages, drive my own reliable transportation, am knowledgeable in baby sign and RIE parenting, and love any and all pets with my whole heart! I cook yummy, healthy meals, guide/tutor effectively and gently, keep a clean and tidy house, do laundry, errands, and change diapers with a smile! And then some! My schedule is flexible and l am eager for an in person meeting or a phone call to take a next step! Hope to speak soon!
