I am an enthusiastic, engaging and responsible person who loves children! I am looking for a way to make some money while I build my life coaching business. I have 10+ years of experience working and volunteering with kids. I babysat throughout high school and college (ages 1-14), volunteered at Community Reading Buddies (pre-K), Girls Inc (K-12), and Reach Academy (after school care K-5), worked as a summer camp instructor with Trackers Earth (ages 6-10) for five years, tutored both elementary and high school age students, and gave virtual presentations about science/ecology and my education/career path to elementary school students. My Master’s degree is in Environmental Studies. I have been babysitting with Sittercity since August 2022, with children as young as 8 months up to 12 years old. I am currently most interested in working with babies and toddlers. I am currently booked for regular positions, but looking for occasional Read more afternoon or evening one-off events. In addition to general child care and activities, I can also take kids on walks to nearby parks and/or natural areas and talk about local ecology, and I can put together basic meals if prepped ahead of time.

Cristina was punctual, was careful to wear a mask, was good in keeping the toddler engaged and was kind enough to tidy the play area. Cristina was the first babysitter of my two year old toddler and he had a lot of fun playing with her.

Cristina is timely and attentive. She’s wonderful about getting our little one outside and exploring. She’s not afraid to ask a question if she’s wondering about how you’d like something done. Definitely recommend.
