About Kristen
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I have had 4 nanny jobs starting with infants and another nanny job starting with a toddler. I also have over 15 years of experience in working with infants, toddlers, and preschool children in two different day cares. I have my Masters Degree in Education and would be happy to provide you with transcripts. I have also completed a Newborn Specialist Training. I am Pediatric CPR and First Aid certified. I see the safety of the child as the overall top priority of a caregiver. I love gleaning information from child development research and incorporating the knowledge into how I care for children. I am a huge believer in experiential learning. Whether it be art projects, simple science experiments, story time at the library or outings to museums, I love introducing the world to children.

Kristen is amazing with children of all ages. She was with our family for 2.5 years and we still see her regularly for activities with our children. Not only will she actively engage your child in learning and enrichment activities daily, she will take them into the community and encourage them to learn at libraries, museums, parks and nature centers. She encourages hands on exploration and learning through experience. She's an avid reader and taught my daughter reading letters very early. She kept the house neat and tidy, laundry done, and grocery shopped for our family. She is a top notch professional and I would not hesitate to hire her again!
