Meet Kristiana

Hello i'm Kristiana! I am a collage graduate with 12 years of childcare experience, with children aged infant to teen. I have previously worked full time as a nanny of three, been a children's dance instructor, camp counselor, mothers helper, babysitter, and worked for the YMCA providing before and after school care and tutoring. When it comes to watching your children I am big on spending time outdoors, doing arts and crafts, playing games, reading, going on outings, and having dance parties. I tend to avoid TV time and electronics and instead like to focus being creative, playing, and engaging in educational activities. I have ample experience with newborns and am accustom to establishing feeding, sleeping, and playing schedules. I am also an animal lover, so am comfortable with any kind of pet you might have.
