Booked by 1 family in Granada Hills, CA

I aim to bring a sense of calm to busy families and always look for ways to ease parents' mental load by helping around the house. I've cared for kids of all ages from infants to teenagers and love finding fun and creative ways to engage kids in imaginative play. Whether your kids love sports, science, art, music, or maybe a cool niche hobby I've never heard of, I'm ready to meet them where they're at offering my full presence and attention.

“Our daughter absolutely loves Kat!! We feel so grateful and lucky!!! Kat has such great energy and presence! She’s completely engaged with our daughter and a wonderful person too! Reliable, sweet and a natural with kids! We couldn’t ask for anything more in a babysitter!! Beyond happy and thank you sooo much!! ”
