Hi, I’m Kathryn…

Virtual Assistant, Business Owner, Teacher

I live in the wonderful city of Canterbury, Kent with my partner, daughter and step-son. I have over 10 years of experience working in education as a teacher, leader and mentor.

I have a passion for learning and development which means I am always keen to up-skill myself and others. I have a Masters degree in Advanced Child Protection and a CIPD certificate in People Practice.

I have first-hand experience of burnout. I was not the person I wanted to be for my family. Eventually, I thought ‘why am I doing this!?’ I am responsible for myself and my own life. I knew I wanted to do something that supported other people to reduce their own stress and overwhelm, as well as help them achieve their goals. And so, Kathryn Claire VA was born.

Here is my Mission Statement:

I help small business owners reclaim their energy and time by taking tasks off their plate, so they can enjoy life, love their work and grow with confidence.
