Hi, my name is Kathy and I am currently working full time as an office administrator. I have a bachelor’s in Health Science. I am looking to do babysitting, pet sitting and household services during my free time for a little extra income. I enjoy working with children! I worked with preschool children during my time in college. I also worked in the kids camp on the Carnival Cruise ship for 4 years after graduating college. I have also worked in an afterschool program for a year doing activities and homework help, and helping with summer camp. I can change diapers, read with the kids, do arts & crafts, & play games. I can also cook, clean, and run errands. I also love pets! Especially furry pets! I used to have chihuahuas, hamsters and a bunny. I have had roommates that owned cats and they seem to love me. With my years of experience with kids, I can help with their school work or plan fun activities! Feel free to let me know if you have any questions.
