About Me
Founder, Blossoming Nook Daycare
Hello, my name is Katrina Gilbert, and I’m a proud Milwaukee native with a passion for empowering children and families. I studied Human Services at Milwaukee Area Technical College and Marian University and bring over a decade of experience working in family care services, and behavioral counseling.
My work in human services and mental health gave me a firsthand understanding of the overwhelming challenges families face from navigating limited resources to finding consistent, high-quality childcare. These experiences opened my eyes to how vital a strong support system is for both children and their parents. That insight inspired me to follow my true calling: creating a nurturing, family-centered environment where children can thrive and parents feel empowered, supported, and never alone on their journey.
I’m proud to serve on the Milwaukee Succeeds Planning Committee and actively participate in NAG (New Advisory Group) meetings for NAP SACC, where I volunteer as an industry representative to help shape emerging workforce and education initiatives in our community.
At Blossoming Nook Daycare, I bring both personal passion and professional experience to every child and family we serve.
Let us be a part of your family village!
