HI! My name is Kristen Kessler. I am originally from upstate New York and traversed to Park CIty Utah to be a child center ski instructor for Deer Valley. However, I currently live in downtown SLC. I have always loved children and my first babysitting gig started when I was a mothers helper for my neighbor at 10 years old. I am currently in school pursuing a sociology degree and Entrepreneurship! I have a vast experience not only with teaching and encouraging children but having fun as well! I have had the blessing to ski instruct 3-4 year olds, teach swimming lessons from 2 years to 12 years old, help coach a youth lacrosse team along with assisting in running a small day camp/day care. throughout the years I have obtained many certifications, some including infant/toddler to adult CPR and first aid along with a babysitters license. In 2015, I Read more had the amazing opportunity to obtain my Child Center License for the state of Utah. Along with babysitting for 10 years and teaching all sorts of sports I was also a sleep away camp counselor the summer of 2013! Learning how to take care of a child and to excite them while pursuing as much imagination use as possible has lead me to love working with and understanding children! I am currently looking for a new family to nanny as my current nanny family is no longer in need! I have a lot of experience with 7-10 year olds as well. I am happy to do chores, laundry, meal prepping, walking the dog or anything else!
