About Cristina

Experience: 8 yrs

Hello families! My name is Cristina E. I am a former au pair and now a nanny. I have extensive experience, with more than 6 years of caring for children of all ages. I consider myself a very organized, patient, loving, fun, with a good sense of humor, and active person. I love creating and planning activities for children to keep them engaged. I also have experience as a house manager, providing organization and assistance with household tasks such as laundry, meal preparation, and running errands. Pet sitting, house sitting and additionally, I have experience in teaching the Spanish language to children, teenagers, and adults, in case any of you are interested in the service. I have excellent references and a strong relationship with the families I have worked with, which I will be happy to provide.

We’ve had the pleasure of working with Cristina for the past nine months, and she has been truly wonderful—especially with our youngest, who was just 6 months old when she started and is now a happy, thriving 15-month-old. She is incredibly attentive, patient, and loving with him, and it’s been a joy to watch their bond grow. She is dependable, organized, and brings a calm, positive energy to our home. While her main focus has been on our toddler, she’s also been great with our 4- and 6-year-old boys, engaging them when they’re around and supporting our family’s routines with ease. What really stands out is how much she genuinely cares about our children’s growth and development. She is always encouraging their curiosity, engaging them in age-appropriate ways, and celebrating their milestones right alongside us. She’s artistic, enjoys outdoor play, and brings a lot of creativity to her time with the kids. A huge bonus is that she’s a fluent Spanish speaker, which we’ve really appreciated. She genuinely loves kids, and it shows in everything she does. We feel very lucky to have had her as part of our family’s care team, and any family would be lucky to work with her!
