Ms. Cathy is a wonderful/kind/caring, patient and professional babysitter. She has watched my two kids (aged 8 and 3.5) a few times this past year and has been very helpful. The kids enjoy their time with her. She is very hands on and helpful (she goes to the park, plays with them, etc)—she even washed my dishes! So thankful for her availability. I highly recommend her!

Cathy is such a great babysitter with our family. She is always on time with a smile on her face. She spends time asking the kids questions about what is going on in their lives as well as listening for their responses. She goes above and beyond as far as helping out while watching the kids. She has helped to clean up toys that we have left out or even wash dishes that were there before she got there. We never asked her to or expected her to, but it sure is nice to come home to a house cleaner than when we left it. She is very attentive. When our 2 year old eats, she makes sure the food is appropriately cut for her and is always there to make sure she doesn't choke. We asked her to help with some folding of laundry while the kids were sleeping and she was very accomadating. We are so greatful that we connected through SitterCity.

Cathy is everything a parent is looking for when it comes to caring for your children. She is kind, patient, creative, engaging, flexible, and very reliable. Every other Friday, she babysits for my toddler son and daughter (now ages 3 & 4) for 8 hours. My children are always excited for “Miss Cathy Day!” We come home to big smiles from our children showing us a creative activity they completed and an orderly house. It’s a breath of fresh air after a long day of work. I highly recommend Cathy!!

Catherine is the most incredible baby sitter I have ever had the joy to work with. Every time we ask her to watch our son, he is beyond ecstatic and can’t wait for her to get here. She is so patient and kind, she treats my son with so much care and respect. I would absolutely recommend her to any and all of my friends and family. Truly wonderful individual and I adore working with her each time.

Cathy is amazing!! She worked part-time for our family over the spring and summer of 2021 watching our 2 boys - 4 and 6 years old. She was professional (e.g., always on time, communicated well) and the kids truly enjoyed their time with her. She kept them busy taking them to the park, reading, coming up with activities in and outside, and knew how to handle difficult "kid" situations (e.g., occasional meltdowns, scrapes, hungry, tired, etc.) without any direction from me. We would definitely use her in the future if/when our schedules align and I would highly recommend her to others.
