I have several years of experience caring for children aged 0 to 13 years. I have also cared for a special needs child on a weekly basis. Until recently, I provided creative movement and dance sessions and German language classes to children aged 2 to 11 years. I now work as a children's counsellor using therapeutic play, movement, art making and sand play. I love children and I find myself learning from them and the way they interact with the world every day. I speak native level English and German. I was a live-in Au Pair in Paris many years ago and speak intermediate level French.

Katherina was a wonderful babysitter for our son! She brought lots of games and activities and they had a fantastic time! He’s still talking about Kat and her balloons! We would definitely use Katherina again as a babysitter next time we are on the Sunshine Coast.

katharina was amazing with my daughter.
She enjoyed everything they did together.
Katharina was very attentive and brought activities with her which was great. I would definitely have her looked after my daughter again and definitely recommend Katharina

Katharina was amazing, this was my first time using the app and getting a babysitter for my 2yo and from the second she arrived both myself and my son were at ease! Katharina even did the dishes which was a great surprise when I got home. She gave us a good debrief of how everything went and updates while we were out. Definitely recommend Katharina’s service!

Katharina was amazing with our girls. She brought lots of different things for the kids to play with. She helped make dinner and tidied up the kitchen and all the toys at the end of the night. The girls were really happy with her and we felt at ease leaving the kids with her while we were out. We look forward to booking her again.

Katharina was punctual and her communication was excellent. She brought crafts as she knew we were on holiday and so our girls were not in their usual home. She was very flexible and stayed until midnight. But ultimately the more informed reviews come from the kids and our girls said, "she was great, if I had a list what baby sitter I liked she would just fill it up" and "her very nice and she helped me sleep". Would defiantly hire again and recommend.

Katharina was a pleasure to work with. She has such a beautiful energy and we felt very safe having her take care of our 6 month old.

What a great easy girl to get along with. My kids adore her and want her back already!

My two boys were comfortable very quickly with Katharina, who brought craft and Pom poms with her to enjoy with them. We felt very secure with Katharina and would definitely book her again!

It was our first experience using Sittr and we have been very pleased with it all.
Katharina is lovely, quick to come back to you and she was fantastic with our kids. They had a great evening with her doing craft activities, dancing with ribbons and balloons and reading stories . We also ask Katharina to extend our time by an extra 30min and it was no problem at all. Very nice person and experience. Thank you Katharina

Katharina was fantastic. Great communication leading up to the booking & when she arrived she made both us and the children feel relaxed and at ease with her friendly persona. Highly recommended.

Katharina was excellent. My 2 boys enjoyed her company and I felt at ease leaving them in her care. Katharina is warm, kind, caring and professional and i highly recommend her. We look forward to seeing her again when we visit Noosa.

Katharina is lovely. The kids were comfortable and settled almost immediately. Great sitter :)

Merryn B .       April 2018

Katharina was great. Warm, friendly and instantly bonded with the kids. She had them dancing and entertained before settling them into bed. Both kids loved her. Will definitely reach out to her whenever we visit Noosa.

Katharina is great! She looked after 6 kids ages 9 x 2, 7, 5, 2 and 1 - daunting for anyone! She was kind, friendly and did everything we asked of her. She has extremely good communication skills and asked questions when she wasn’t sure.
We’d highly recommend Katharina to anyone. And will definitely use her again.

Katharina looked after our three children last night and they gave her a glowing report. She helped our eldest child with her homework, played Monopoly (willingly) and she had some great conversations on various topics with the children. My youngest child wanted to know when we are going out next so that Katharina can come and look after her again. So happy that they had a good night as it is always difficult leaving your children with a new carer. Katharina has a very calm demeanor and my husband and I felt confident when we went out last night that the kids were in good hands. Thanks so much Katharina and we look forward to seeing you again.
