About Kristen

Enriching kids' lives and supporting families became my passion three years ago when my nephew was born. With previous years of experience caring for children of all ages, from toddlers to teenagers, I offer a patient, creative, and gentle approach to childcare. I have a college degree and coursework in Child Development. I am comfortable caring for up to two children at a time; if kids are over 8, I'm comfortable caring for 3 at a time. I am also a professional cat and dog caregiver with experience in veterinary medicine. My favorite activities include playing at parks, puzzles, board games, and educational games that make learning more engaging! I am happy to help with cooking, light housekeeping, carpooling, travel, and swimming supervision. I always follow the parents' lead in communication and household rules. I hope I can make parents' lives less stressful and the kids happy!
