About Katherine

I have been a teacher for 20 years 13 in elementary school and seven in middle school. I loved my job but wanted to make a change. I babysat for families all the time when I was growing up. I am a mom of three grown children. I love to get kids moving and doing creative things. I love doing little activities such as arts and crafts, puzzles, playing outside, little science experiments, visiting fun places, and most of all I love reading to children of all ages. I even read to my children when they were babies. But mostly, I want the children to know I care about them and I want them to be excited about doing things. If they are babies..... I love them!! My family teases me all the time "Oh no!" there is a baby wait until mom sees it.:) I believe children of all ages are a blessing and each of them are unique and talented in so many ways. I want to get to know them and help encourage their love for learning new things and to feel safe and cared for every day.:)
