Taking care of and teaching children is my life! Since I was in college, I have worked with kids. First, as a part-time nanny, and now as an English teacher, I haved dedicated my life to helping others. I now am old enough to be responsible, punctual, and detail-oriented, but I am still young enough to interact with kids and to play with them whether it is running around outside or quietly working on crafts, or reading a book. I am looking to build long-term relationships with quality families.

Christina was a great choice for watching our 23 month old. We called last minute and she came through for us. My son quickly warmed up and started playing with her. When it was time for us to go we were surprised my son didn't even care we were leaving. During our date a storm came in that night and she kept us informed along with pictures to assure us everything was fine. When we got home our son was asleep and Christina gave a full report on how he did and saved his food for us to see how much he ate. We were very impressed with Christina and would recommend her to anyone.

Christina is the best! I was in Atlanta for a last-minute business trip, and my husband and 14-month-old son joined me. Christina took care of Leon in our hotel for the better park of a week and was absolutely fantastic. My son adored her - she took great care of him - and we felt completely at ease. Christina is professional, competent, and a lovely person - I highly recommend her!

Christina was wonderful with our 19 month old son! He had a blast! She kept me updated on what they were doing and made me feel at ease! We will definitely be having her sit again! -Jamie S

Christina was excellent. She gave me complete confidence that she had everything under control with our 1 and 4 year old. My 4 year old asked the next day if we could take her to a Braves game, so I know he really liked her! We will definitely use her again!

Christina was a fantastic babysitter who was right on time, easy to contact throughout the evening, reliable, responsible, available on a moment's notice, and super sweet and fun for my daughter to spend time with. She really made my child feel special by giving her lot of attention and praise. We will definitely be calling her again as my daughter is already asking "is Christina coming again tonight??"

Christina was the kind, calm person we needed when a social event brought us to Atlanta. She stayed at our Buckhead area hotel to the complete delight of our little girl. When an unexpected bout of homesickness came up, she handle it perfectfully.

Christina was wonderful! As soon as she came in, she started playing with the kids, and my normally shy daughter warmed up immediately. The next morning the kids asked when she was coming back to play!

Christina was really great. I had a last minute need for a sitter for my 4 yr old and she came through. She was very nice and I felt very comfortable leaving my son with her. The main testament as to how much my son liked her was that he told me that next time he has a sitter he wants it to be Christina. I would definitely recommend her to anyone needing a sitter.

Christina was great. I felt completely comfortable leaving my two boys (3 & 2) with her and she kept them busy the whole time I was gone with lots of activities and attention. We would love to use her again.
