About Kirsten
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hi there! My name is Kirsten. I am a licensed speech therapist with a focus in working with special needs children. I enjoy crafts, books, the outdoors, and any fun engaging activities that children can experience to learn new skills. I have 12+ years experience with care/ babysitting. I have been hired on care. com in the past to work with a 1-year-old girl, an infant with blindness, a preteen female with deafness and autism, and to be a companion to a young adult female with Down syndrome. I am comfortable with pick up and drop off, accompanying children to sports practices or other activities, pets in the home, and light housekeeping. I am a mommy of an almost 2-year-old girl. I am looking for a position with a fun and flexible family that will allow my daughter to accompany me during the day. I will gladly share my licenses, certifications, clearances and resume upon request. My family has recently moved to Kutztown, PA due to my husband's career.

Kirsten was a great caregiver for our daughter with autism and deafness. They went for walks, played games together, and cooked food. Kirsten really helped my daughter to start using more sign language at home. Wish she still lived in the area but grateful to still be in contact with her on social media.
