Hello! My name is Kirsten Christophersen and children are definitely my greatest passion in life! I was homeschooled all the way through high school and then took three years off to nanny three amazing wonderful children. Sadly though as you know children grow up and go to school so my amazing nanny family no longer had a need for me. After a lot of thought and research I decided to try college out and got my Emergency Medical Technician certification and have been working for ambulance services for almost a year now. This being said I love my job in the medical field but constantly miss nannying and pouring my life into little ones which is why I’m currently looking to become a part of a of a loving family as a full time nanny again!
