Katherine is a top Bellevue Nanny and loves watching children grow!

“I am a bubbly person who can get along with anyone. I have a great sense of humor and love making people laugh. I want to make a difference in the lives of children by being their friend, being someone they can talk to about anything, and being a role model. My family is very important to me and they are always there to support me. I would like to be a nanny because I think it is the perfect job for my personality. I love children and I know I can make them happy. The reason I have to be a Bellevue Nanny over any other profession is because I believe I could make a difference in the lives of the children, especially with the individual connection a nanny career provides! I have been serving in some form of childcare for over 3 years and can honestly say that I LOVE what I do! I feel children are amazing. My goal as a Nanny is to be a friend to the children, but also be there to let them know what is right and what is wrong. I strive to be a role model for each child that I have the pleasure to work with. I want to be someone they can talk to, but also someone they look up to. I want them to grow up to make good decisions and become the best they can be. I am willing to do housekeeping that includes vaccuuming, dusting, dishes, cleaning, cooking, etc. If I had to describe myself in five adjectives I would say that I am enthusiastic, reliable, responsible, punctual, and caring. Activities that I would like to incorporate in the daily plan for the family I care for would include I would like to go outside when the weather is nice. We could go to a park, play with a frisbee, or just anything that gets us outside. I would also love to incorporate educational activities to continue the cognitive development of all children. If asked to describe the perfect family seeking a Nanny like me I would hope they would be compassionate, caring, understanding, and love what they do.”

“Over the past 5 years, I have had the pleasure of getting to know Katherine as she has been a full-time nanny to my three children. In this setting, I have observed Katherine to be an easy-going, responsible and diligent individual. As a nanny, I have relied on Katherine to complete a multitude of tasks. In addition to caring for my children, I have often relied on her to tutor when necessary; a task she demonstrated ease and adeptness. During our time together, Katherine has always diligently completed even the smallest tasks with kindness and sensitivity. She has a genuine interest in caring for children and meeting their needs. Her patient and diligent approach to responsibilities sets her apart and I've appreciated her direct communication. As a nanny, Katherine would often go beyond the expectations set forth. In all of our interactions, she has consistently exhibited a genuine altruistic nature and I believe her benevolent approach will continue to be an asset to her as she moves forward. Katherine would be a tremendous asset to your district and I recommend her as a Bellevue Nanny without hesitation.”

“As a busy mother of 5 and self-employed, I went searching for a Bellevue Nanny after moving. I have high-standards and very high energy children. However, thankfully we met Kate and I breathed a huge sigh of relief. She is absolutely delightful. I knew we would not be able to keep her long because she is just much too talented and winsome to not be discovered by an engaging employer. Kate breezed through the various tasks in my home with a lovely attitude. I did not need to give her any direction, she simply understood what the children needed and how to solve any unpredictable evenings. Not only that, Kate was a good communicator, punctual and organized when scheduling appointments. Any family considering Kate will be very pleased with such a diligent, amiable and capable person. Please do not hesitate to call me or email me for any further questions or details.”

“Katherine was an advisee of mine. It is my personal and professional pleasure to highly recommend Katherine for a nanny position with your family. Kate is a dedicated, creative, and talented teacher who constantly seeks ways to make her teaching even more effective. She is observant of the exceptional people with whom she works and uses their example as a resource. She was always a contentious student and met regularly with me just to “check in” and make sure there was nothing more I needed of her, not something many students take the initiative to do. She consistently displayed this level of commitment to her education and career. I expect this to continue in all her future endeavors, and I would be thrilled to learn that my own daughter had her as a child care provider. Since being a student here, Kate has gained a great deal of real world experience working directly with children. She has worked as a childcare provider of three elementary aged children, engaged them in educational as well as social activities. She was a preschool teacher where she developed and implemented a developmentally appropriate preschool program. She was also a toddler preschool, as well as a substitute teacher. All of these experiences, combined with her passion, intelligence, and creativity make her an excellent candidate for a position as a Bellevue Nanny.”

“I have had the pleasure of knowing Katherine during the time she attended the graduate program. However, throughout time at the College, Kate demonstrated outstanding skills and leadership in learning. Kate artfully juggled the responsibilities of work and the rigors of college studies while at college. Reviewing Kate's accomplishments as a professor at the College, and as a former Executive Director of Special Education for an urban school district, I can attest to Kate’s excellence and commitment to the art of teaching and responding to the needs of both typical and special needs children. It is without reservation that I highly recommend Kate as a first-rate Bellevue Nanny candidate for consideration. It is without doubt that she will continue to demonstrate the intensity and effort to meet your children’s needs as she has proven during her time at this College.”

“As a prior Superintendent of Schools, and lifetime educator, I was not only impressed by Katherine’s organizational skills, knowledge and performance in my coursework, but also her experiential background and the expertise in teaching children that she displayed in our application exercises. Katherine’s areas of certification are K-6 Elementary and K-8 Special Education. She has completed both programs with high standing, including pre-service experience. She demonstrates a deep understanding of child development and corresponding successful learning experiences/outcomes. Her employment as a preschool teacher, substitute teacher, TSS and cyber school teacher, further extended her knowledge and teaching skills in the areas of: classroom management, technology, IEP writing, lesson planning, instruction, and diagnostic/prescriptive techniques that specifically target individual achievement and behavioral outcomessuccessfully. I highly recommend Katherine for any position within the childcare industry especially as a Bellevue Nanny. She is a team player, lifelong learner, shows a high level of work ethic and would be an asset to any organization. I wish her well with her endeavors and know that both she and her students will be successful.”
