Meet Kirsten

Hi, I am Kirsten. I am 37 year old stay at home mom with a 4 year old at home full time looking to babysit in my home to supplement income. A little about me, I grew up taking care of my two little brothers and babysitting, went to school for early childhood learning and trained in a day care setting for two years, then spent 20 years in the service industry all while raising my three daughters now 16, 11 and 4. I trained at the Missouri Botanical Gardens as a Master Gardener through Mizzou’s extension program and have been serving the community since 2016. Currently, I am focusing on family, gardening and baking. I am big on art, music and creative expression as well as sensory play, getting outside into nature, getting active, playing games and reading. We are a family that does our best to avoid processed, Read more artificial and overly sugary foods instead offering healthier snack options and slow foods. I love to get kids helping in the kitchen teaching kitchen safety, teamwork and building confidence. Thank you for reading about me! I am looking forward to learning how I might fit you and your family’s child care needs.
