Hello! My name is Kathy. Having raised three children of my own, I understand firsthand what it truly takes to nurture, guide, and show up for a child day after day. With 10 years experience as a classroom teacher, I know how to connect with children of all ages and meet them where they are. Whether that means helping with homework or reading bedtime a story. As a certified nutrition and health coach, I put the same care into mealtimes that I bring to everything else — so your children will eat well and actually enjoy what's on their plate. I'm also CPR and first aid certified, giving you an extra layer of confidence that your little ones are in capable hands. I'm glad to help with light housekeeping to keep things running smoothly while you're away, and as an animal lover myself, I'm completely comfortable around pets of all Read more kinds. My goal is simply to make your life a little easier and give you the peace of mind you deserve.
