After being a stay at home mom for 15 years, I am looking to ease back into the work world. I have a psychology degree from Bridgewater College, and before kids I worked at Handi-Crafters for 3 years where I helped find job placement for adults with disabilities. My children are 15, 10, and 7, and they are my first priority, but I have missed working with individuals with special needs. I had a daughter who was born with a severely underdeveloped brain, and although she passed away in April 2005, she lived a peaceful, happy life. I am excited to get back to my passion, and provide respite for families and care for those with special needs. I also have all clearances.

    Kristie has been both a pet sitter and a child care provider for us. She has provided thoughtful care for my two kids on many occasions over the past ten years. She also pet sits for our dog and many others in our neighborhood. She is cheerful and friendly and the kids love her.
