Experience: 2 yrs
Caring for children is more than a job for me; it's a passion rooted in a lifetime of nurturing those around me. My previous babysitting roles showed me the importance of supporting families by providing reliable care. As a triplet from a large family, kindness and responsibility were essential, and I bring those values to every interaction. Friends affectionately call me "Kristen Poppins" because I am reliable, nurturing, and always prepared with patience, fun, and structure. With two years of experience, I provide one-on-one care. I'm patient, creative, friendly, and comfortable following your lead on household rules and communication preferences. I enjoy playing board games, puzzles, and educational games that promote learning. I am happy to help with cooking, light housekeeping, carpooling, travel, and swimming supervision.
Kristen has watched my two (now grown) girls several times over the past 8 years. She babysat over at her house for a few hours, or mine, and even did a weekend overnight at my house. She is loving, caring and kind. While seeming like a "big sister" to them she enjoyed watching Disney movies and musicals with the girls. She also can be a "mother hen" and question them about their friends, school and future plans. I consider her family and would have her watch my children or any other loved ones anytime. If you want a modern day Mary Poppins, Kristen is your lady!
