Meet Kristin
- Comfortable with pets
Kristin has worked with parents, teachers and children for the last ten years. Not only does Kristin have 2 young children of her own (4 and 6 years old), she also has been babysitting newborn to middle school children since High School. I love being outside with children, playing board games, or getting creative with some artwork (always cleaned up! :) ). She trains preschool teachers in early childhood development and education. Kristin also educates new parents through seminars and private consultations, while also pursuing other related projects. Recent projects include coaching in NYC public school preschool programs to ensure fidelity in a NYU study and literacy tutoring with at-risk students in Bronx charter schools. Kristin earned a Master of Education Degree in Human Development and Psychology from Harvard University as well as Bachelor of Arts Degree in Psychology and Biological Basis of Behavior from the University of Pennsylvania.

Kristin was fantastic! When she showed up, she quickly got oriented to our place and our son's bedtime routine. She was great with our son-- she made him laugh and put him at ease right away. She has a ton of experience with kids, and it definitely shows. I would recommend her to anyone.

Kristin was lovely. My one year old really liked her from the very beginning (and she is usually scared of strangers - this was not the case with Kristin). Would definitely recommend!
