Hello, I’m Christina. I wanted to introduce myself. I am a pediatric occupational therapist currently looking for babysitting/nanny positions for April-August.

I am child/infant/adult CPR/First aid certified and have my own car with insurance and a good driving record. I am responsible and reliable and have a strong work ethic. I would be open to helping with light cleaning, laundry, meal prep as well as driving kids around, pickup/drops offs etc. I have an extensive background in child development and working with children with special needs. I have my bachelors degree in psychology and masters degree in occupational therapy. I love being a pediatric OT! :) I have cared for children 3 months to 15 years and feel comfortable caring for multiple kiddos as Read more well. I love caring for children and enjoy planning fun developmentally appropriate activities and outings. Building a trusting relationship with the families I work for is of utmost importance to me.
