About Catherine
Experience: 10 yrs
I have over 20 solid years of experience babysitting and care giving from: a hands-on orphanage setting with newborns through setting up and running the first day care at Mt. Baker Ski Area. I have provided extended in-home child care while parents vacation in Europe and leave their children at home. I am a Washington State certified home care aid with First Aid training & CPR. I Have 9. 5 years university training and hold a current Wa. State counseling license; but I have decided to go back to child care. I am comfortable with all aged children and I am known for my calming attitude while providing a fun, safe arena for children. I am very healthy, non-smoker, non drinker with a very active life style. I love to take kids out walking and fun in-house activities.

Reviewed on 12/1/2019
She is easy to work with. Very kindhearted and kids/babies are drawn to her gentle and calm aura. Cathy is punctual, trustworthy and dependable. She appears to have tons of experience and families who hire her want to stick with her. She babysat for us a few times when our son (who is not your typical angel baby) was 7 months to about a year old.
