Hi, I am mom to two wonderful young men, 20 and 26. I've been a parent/ educator coach/ support specialist for the past 32 years. I've been working with and around kids and families since I was 12, babysitting, working at a residential center for youth, as a preschool teacher for 7 years, and owned/ directed a summer camp for 12 years. I love spending time with children, playing, reading, creating, and being out in nature. I understand that parents want to know their child is in good hands, with a responsible, level headed adult, who is also fun and has a deep grounding in child development. I'm your person. I'd love to come spend time with your child.
We hired Kirsten to care for our toddler and would recommend her for her responsiveness, reliability, and calm demeanor! We also really appreciated her willingness to take him out and about to get lots of exercise. She sought feedback from us about her care and was great at following his routine. Thank you, Kirsten!
