Meet Kristie

I have extensive experience working with children and a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology. I was employed as a career nanny for fifteen years. During that time, I worked with four wonderful families. Their children ranged in age from newborn through eleven years old. Also, I was employed as a Teacher Assistant in a special needs preschool classroom, at a school in the north suburbs of Chicago. I truly enjoy interacting with, and engaging children in creative play. I am passionate about helping kids of all ages, develop a love for learning.

Kristie I.'s reply
This review was posted in 2023. My schedule changed prior to starting this position. The position was for a full day of work on every Sunday. I was not able to commit to working every Sunday so I did not start the position.
