Katherine’s Bio

Hello,

My family and I have lived in Manhattan Beach for over 19 years. I am a mother, actress/writer, nanny/baby and pet sitter. I have cared for an adorable orange tabby in Manhattan Beach on a regular basis for 6 1/2 years. I love to pet him, cuddle with him, brush him and play with him and his colorful southwestern-designed kitty rod!! We have loads of fun together!! That's in addition to feeding him, giving him water and cleaning his litter box, of course! :-) I also bring in the mail and attend to other various duties.

I have pets of my own, as well. I have a charcoal gray kitty named Rin and a black kitty named October; both 3 years old. They are both true characters and get tons of love. I also have an 12-year old Golden Retriever named Owen who is also very loving and greatly loved.

I cherish animals and enjoy giving them the full attention and love they so deserve. I have always had pets in my life as they are precious to me. I actually can't imagine my life without them! They really have a way of touching my heart. I am definitely a lover of animals!

Lastly, I am an active person who enjoys Tae-Bo, Pilates, Yoga, hiking and meditation so I am physically fit for the pets I care for! :-)

Thank you for reading this!

Katherine took care of our 4 month old baby boy a few times now. She's reliable, trustworthy, patient and understanding and does all the things we asked her to do and more. She sang to him, read to him, and played with him which he really enjoyed. We were very happy with Katherine and always looked forward to asking her back.

Ms. Katherine started with us in 2020 and has been part of the family since. My daughter is now going off to preschool but we still plan on using Ms. Katherine for babysitting. I cannot say enough good things about Ms. Katherine and wish their were more than 5 stars to give! She is attentive, caring, trusting, and loved by all! My daughter had colic when she first started with us and she never sat down. She was constantly singing, bouncing, dancing, and walking her. Whatever she needed! She continues to sing every day and takes our daughter to the park every day! She is not the nanny who sits around and talks with others. She is on the play structure with the child and fully engaged. She goes on walks, reads books, does puzzles. No screen time which I appreciated. She would make food and feed my daughter. She is clean, picks up after the day, does her laundry, etc. She is also always on time. Ms. Katherine has a very calming presence about her and the kids just love her! She even participated in my daughter’s speech therapy classes and applied what we learned to help her speech improve. As a parent you want the best for your child and to know that they are safe and loved. Ms. Katherine checks all of these boxes.

I'd recommend Katherine O for the position of babysitter for children of all ages. Katherine helped us with our 3 and 5 year old daughters. We spent days looking for a babysitter for a Friday evening and one meeting with Katherine, we were so confident that she was the knowledgeable about children.

Katherine was excellent with my children, she is very calm and easy going. Katherine follows instructions to the letter and is very good at making sure that children are kept busy with painting, reading and other arts and crafts.

One of the aspects of Katherine's personality that I appreciated the most was her ability to always have calm and pleasant demeanor. My daughter are still working on their listening skills but with Katherine's nurturing personality, I was assured they are in good hands. If you have the opportunity to hire Katherine as your babysitter, I would recommend strongly that you do so.

Katherine was great! She was easy to reach through Sitter City's messages and responded quickly. She came to our house on time and asked lots of good questions about our baby before we left. We'll definitely ask her to babysit for us in the future.

Katherine was available on short notice, and after a detailed phone call in which she took care to ask about my children's names, ages, and a bit about them - turns out I knew her as another mom I had met in summer camp and around town. She is reliable, personable, and my middle daughter who has separation anxiety had no issue being placed in her care. I highly recommend her.

Kathryn is a wonderful sitter. She has been very reliable and trustworthy each time we have had her babysit our two girls.

Katherine has taken care of our 3 month old twice now and we really feel lucky to have found her. She is prompt, reliable, available on short notice, and really great with children. I was nervous to leave our daughter for the first time with a sitter but felt completely at ease once I saw her ability to communicate and connect with our little one. We will continue to ask Katherine to babysit for us in the future and recommend her to anyone in need of a sitter.
