Experience: 10 yrs
Nurturing a child's curiosity and watching them reach new milestones is my true passion. With 10 years of experience, I provide dedicated, one-on-one care built on patience, creativity, and a calm demeanor. I hold a college degree with coursework in Early Child Development, and I maintain current CPR Training and First Aid certifications. I am very comfortable enforcing your household rules while creating an imaginative environment through educational games, puzzles, and board games. Since I am a skilled swimmer, I am happy to provide swimming supervision during outings. I am also available to assist with meal preparation, carpooling, and light housekeeping. I prioritize your preferred communication style to ensure you feel connected to your child's day. I truly look forward to supporting your family and becoming a trusted partner in your child's growth.
We've known Cristina since we started working with her during the pandemic (so, for quite some time!) and she was a full-time nanny for our oldest child. Cristina is knows and loves children, and, as a caregiver is supremely nurturing and reliable. Of note, when we worked with her, our child was experiencing some sensory challenges and evaluations and Cristina was an invaluable member of our team, in making the necessary adjustments and supporting our needs. Hoping she finds a lucky family again soon!
