About Kristen

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello! I currently nanny full time Monday-Thursday, but have availability on Friday, Saturday, Sunday (and some week day evenings). I have an extensive background in both childcare, caregiving & healthcare as a CMA (4 years in Pediatrics, 8 years in Women's Health/OBGYN & 1 year in Cardiology). I've handled a vast array of medical emergencies, worked with & watched premature infants, medically fragile children, special needs adolescents & energizer bunny kiddos. I love helping & watching children learn & grow, and I think fueling a developing brain with healthy stimulus is very important. Playtime & structured time are equally important, too! I love the inner child that still lingers within me; getting messy & playing outside, coloring in coloring books & painting, making play-dough, dress up & tea parties, reading books, building hot wheels tracks & ramps but I know how to maintain an air of authority at the same time.
