Experience: 10 yrs
I'm a loving, patient, passionate & creative soul, who loves to help busy families get to take a breath & enjoy what they've worked so hard to build! I love children & was born to help them grow & thrive by loving the whole child, making them feel seen and heard exactly where they're at, valued & validated always. I'm a former Art Teacher to over 4, 000+ students in the ATX, SA, & CO areas. I have been a professional nanny for a huge portion of my life. I am special in that I have a background in Art Therapy, & trauma informed care. I have my BFA in Studio Art: Metalsmithing & Jewelry Design. A Post- Baccalaureate Degree in Art Education, certified in Art EC-12. I attended Naropa University, & studied Art Therapy at the Graduate level. I am here to help you with anything you and your family needs :) I believe in quality time over screen time, not just for kids, but for humankind. I love nature, animals & laughter. Let's imagine, play, wonder, bond, learn, & be creative together!
Kristen was great with our one year old. She was nice and receptive to our input.
