Experience: 10 yrs
The baby in my profile is my niece, and I have permission to use her photo for this app. I live in Gig Harbor, I have a comfortable and safe car which is insured. I also have a background check here and would do additional screenings for the right family. I am also first aid certified. I like to emulate Mary Poppins in that I try to encourage kids to be curious, organized, and responsible - though I might encourage more silliness than Mary Poppins. I like fun, responsibly. I like to encourage good communication, solid decision making skills, outside time, lots of creative play, and I enjoy finding a steady pace with a family so I can best be of help. I have been a nanny since 18 and have tons of experience between various families, some of which were long term and some qhich were short term. Please feel free to reach out with questions.
Krista goes above and beyond in every way. She was exceptional with my 9 month old and our Boston Terrier. When I was checking her references every single person raved about how they never wanted to let her go and now I know why. We moved out of state and ending our time with Krista was the hardest part. Our son was 7 months old when Krista started and they developed a strong relationships right off the bat. Krista engaged our baby and met him where he was in development. She helped with baby's laundry, prepared and fed many meals, facilitated play between baby and dog, spent countless hours on outdoor adventures, bathed baby, and just about anything we asked of her. Baby cheered when Krista arrived and found great comfort in her. Krista gave baby care while both my husband and I worked from home. After getting acclimated to the space and to each other it felt like Krista was confident giving baby care and attention with us around. Could not recommend her more!!
