Hi there! My name is Kirsten Holmes and I am a local resident in Alrxandria, VA seeking my next nanny opportunity! I currently attend Arizona State University, in which I study Family and Human Services with a concentration in Services to Youth. I have been babysitting in the Baltimore area for about three years now, and have decided that I would like to provide childcare full-time! From infants, toddlers, and early youth, I pride myself in making meaningful connections with each child individually. As the oldest of six, caring for children has always come natural to me. I have also worked as a camp counselor, youth-group advocate, and a babysitter for three families via Sitter City ranging from ages 5 months to 7 years old. I am currently a SPED educator for Fairfax County private schools! If you would like to learn more about me, please do not hesitate to Read more reach out. I would love to schedule a meeting to learn more about your family and it's needs.
