I'm Kristen, an experienced 34 year old care provider who has been providing childcare for 10+ years now. My experience has been with children from newborn to early school age. I am very specialized in infants specifically, as I have watched over a dozen families' babies from the time span of 6 weeks old up to 3 years. I do have experience with multiple sets of twins. I offer individualized care from my home, so it would be a personalized nanny share setting with flexible hours, including evenings, weekends, and overnights. My environment is very quiet and peaceful, with just me and my dog living here. I have been doing childcare since my teens on the side of school/college/career, and decided to make nannying my full-time career a couple years ago, with a focus on infants and toddlers specifically. I am college-educated from Boston College. I am relocating my infant Read more childcare setup from Columbus, Ohio to Asheville this July. I have had my COVID vaccines + booster and am very disciplined about masks and social distancing. I have a Dyson air purifier in my home that filters out 99.7% of airborne viral/bacterial/allergen particles. I use Nanit baby monitors, which monitors the baby's breathing rate while they sleep, for extra peace of mind while they're here. It is a very quiet, safe and nurturing environment here! I also have a subscription to Lovevery, which sends new stage-based, developmentally appropriate toys each month. I would love to talk more – thank you for your interest!
