Meet Christa

  • Comfortable with pets

My name is Christa. I've been working in childcare since I was a young girl. I started babysitting when I was 12 and have loved working with kids ever since. We usually enjoy doing things outdoors when the weather permits and when it doesn't I do arts and crafts, music time, reading, building, playing games, and cooking with the kids. I work for a nanny agency and have been lucky enough to work with a lot of really fun kids and families in the Portland area. I moved here from Hawaii where I was also a nanny, part time, and I just returned from two months in Europe where I was an Au pair! I have a lot of experience in the childcare field and I am infant and child CPR certified. I feel one of my best qualities is responding properly and remaining calm in high pressure or emergency Read more situations. I am responsive, attentive, and very loving. You can feel comfortable leaving your little ones with me while you are at work, on a date, or whatever it may be, and know that they will be safe and happy while you're gone.

Christa was the best babysitter I could have found for my 15 month old boy and my 3 year old daughter! They both loved her from the very first moment on since she was very charismatic, sensitive, patiently, carrying and sweet. I loved the way she talked to the kids and how ahead of every situation she was. She simply knew what to expect next and what to do at the right moment. Christa was a great help for me during the past days on Kona and I was definitely able to enjoy some time with my hubby knowing that my kids were in the best hands! Thank you Christa for the great job you did with our kids.
