About Krista

Experience: 10 yrs

I'm a college educated, highly experienced, CPR Certified childcare provider (upwards of 30 years) specializing in infants and toddlers who is available full or part time. I am also ESL certified, cleared Care background check, vaccinated, early child development coursework, clean driving record, meal prep, tutoring, transportation to activities, playroom organization, children's laundry, and a non-smoker. Previous families would describe me as dependable, patient, safety conscious, structured and education focused. Professional references are available upon request. On a personal note, my eldest daughter is a TK teacher for the public school system and my youngest just graduated UCI. Additionally, I volunteered at the schools for years and enjoy assisting kids with school readiness and nurturing their emotional development. Love being outdoors and letting kids explore. Keeping young minds busy, inquisitive and learning builds confidence and produces happy kids!

Krista has been with us for about a year now and has primarily taken care of our two year old son but also helps with our five year old son. We cannot say enough great things about Krista. She makes my wife and I feel so incredibly secure that she is the person keeping our son safe. She takes him outdoors everyday they are together and makes sure he has plenty of book reading and learning time. Our little one has the days she is with him memorized and wakes up celebrating knowing she will be with him that day. She is professional, sweet, smart, always on time, and has this job down perfectly. Krista treats this as a career and we applaud her for the contract/agreement she set up for herself. There is one rogue review on here but it is definitely not warranted and we figured that out ten minutes into meeting her. She is worth every single penny of her fee and takes so much care in what she does and how she does it. We have a lifelong relationship with her now and any family would be so lucky to have her to take care of their littles. Both of our sons love her very much and we do as well knowing she has put so much time and effort into making sure they are safe as well as making sure they are learning and will be good humans. Have Krista give you our cell phones if you want to chat. We could talk about her all day. They boys will even tell you (our two year old is way ahead of schedule communicating-wise most likely because of her). We think the world of Miss Krista and any family would be lucky to have her in their lives!
