Experience: 10 yrs
I am a mother to two teenage children, and have extensive experience in the medical field. I am experienced with special needs individuals and elderly.
I have known Crista for over 14 years, and I cannot recommend her highly enough as a caregiver. She has cared for my son, who has special needs, since he was just two years old and he is now 16. Over the years she has helped us many times, including several overnight stays, and we have always felt completely confident leaving him in her care. Crista has a rare combination of patience, kindness, and attentiveness that makes her exceptional with children. She is incredibly nurturing and has always taken the time to truly understand my son’s needs and personality. Because of this, he feels comfortable and safe with her, which is something every parent hopes for but doesn’t always find. Caring for a child with special needs requires compassion, flexibility, and a calm presence, and Crista brings all of those qualities naturally. She has always treated my son with respect, warmth, and genuine care, and she consistently goes above and beyond to make sure he is happy and well supported. Our family trusts Crista completely, and she has been an invaluable part of our support system for many years. Any family would be extremely fortunate to have her as their caregiver.
