About Cristina

Experience: 5 yrs

I babysat for a very busy family for 3 years. I was responsible for three children (mostly 2 because the third is a teen and very after school activities oriented), since they were 3, 5 and 13. I mostly did after school babysitting, from picking them up from school to warming up dinner, helping with homework, and taking each one to their activities i. e. gymnastics, T-ball and dance. There were also other activities that I helped/supervised like homework, baking, birthday parties and every day chores. Sometimes the days would go as late as me tucking them into bed and reading them a bedtime story. I have also nannied for a family with a new born, we did walks, tummy time, play time and many naps. I also worked with a very lively family nannying their pre-mature twins. We did doctor visits, exercises, feedings, naps, tummy time, some reading and singing. I am a few classes away from my Art degree. I have a very reliable car, I am not a smoker and I do not allow smoking in my car.

We absolutely LOVE Cristina! We were in a pinch to quickly hire a nanny for our boy/girl 5 month old twins and Cristina was a godsend. She was always on time, proactive in anticipating the needs of my babies. I felt immediately comfortable leaving them with her the 2nd week she worked for us while I had to go work away from home. Normally, this would have been a nerve-wracking time for me, but I felt at east with Cristina's gentle and loving spirit. She treated my babies as if they were her own. I was heartbroken when Cristina decided to pursue corporate America and I almost cried when she left. I would absolutely hire her again if given the opportunity!
