About Kristen

Experience: 18 yrs

For nearly two decades, I have found immense joy in nurturing and caring for children of all ages. My previous babysitting roles ignited a passion for positively impacting young lives and supporting families by providing reliable care. I am patient, creative, and approachable, and I enjoy playing board games, puzzles, and educational games. I am very comfortable enforcing household rules. I communicate with parents through verbal updates at pickup and regular texts, always following your preferred method. I am happy to assist with cooking, light housekeeping, and travel. My background includes coursework in Early Child Development and certification as a teacher. I am also trained in CPR and First Aid. I'm comfortable caring for up to five children. I look forward to discussing how I can bring my experience and dedication to your family.

I absolutely adore Kristen! She is super attentive and is up for anything. My 2 yr old does not like very many people and she climbed right up into Kristen’s lap for a book. I immediately knew she was going to be amazing. Only person I will ever trust with my kiddo.
