Meet Kathy
- Comfortable with pets
My name is Kathy and I have been a nanny and caregiver for 20+ years! I have experience working with multiples, special needs, newborns and children of varied ages. Also lots of experience with elderly care. My passion is taking care of others and relate to them very well. I have been successful in creating a fun learning environment for them, always encouraging them to learn, gain self confidence, explore their world through nature and outside activities. I like art and creative play. I have years of experience in helping children work up to their grade level. I will always focus on intellectual, physical, emotional, language and social development when they are in my care. With the elderly, I am extremely patient and caring. Have experience sith dementia, parkinsons etc. Also took on care of both parents and my aunt until they passed. I have good time management skills and Read more very use to busy households! I don't mind any errands, doctor appointments, grocery and meal prep, laundry, organizing their space, proper hygiene and just whatever it takes to help your household run smoothly. I like entertaining grandparents, walking the pets or any extra things. I am very reliable and flexible! I have amazing references letters and am cpr and first aid certified as well as covid vaccinated. I live in Parkersburg, WV and unfortunately my transmission has to be replaced and the repair is hefty. So at least for the time being I would need to be on the busline or I can also do temp or perm live in positions. Or I would be a great fit for a solid 3 or so days of live in at a reduced rate for transportation help. Looking forward to connecting and helping anyone.
