Meet Chris
- Speaks English
- Comfortable with pets
- Has a car
A love of learning is what I offer to cultivate in your child! A Montessori certification, 18 years as a lead teacher in a mixed-age classroom of 2-5 year olds, and 12 years as a nanny is what uniquely qualifies me to provide a firm foundation for your child's future academic success. Enriching children's lives is not merely a job for me. It is a callling, and one which I answer whole-heartedly and with a passion that is difficult to put into words.. I have recently moved from St. Louis to Sunrise Beach permanently, and I am excited about the opportunity to meet new families and children with whom to share my life!

If you're considering hiring Chris as a nanny for your child, here's some advice...snap her up before someone else does! Chris has been a nanny for us for the past 2 1/2 years (mainly for our now 4 year old, but also for our 9 year old). She's been nothing short of spectacular. Our younger daughter has some health issues so we are very careful about who we have watching her. Not only has Chris made sure our daugther's health needs were addressed, but she's done an amazing job keeping her entertained over the years. Chris shows up every day with what I call her "Mary Poppins" bag stuffed with books, toys and games to keep our daughter, and Chris, busy together during the day. Our daughter, now 4, knows her alphabet (by sight) can write all her letters and numbers, does simple addition and subtraction, and is very close to reading. Chris also has done various "units" with our daughter covering topics including musical instruments, geography, the Olympics and more. My daughters both adore her and I'm sure your kids will too.
