About Christine
Experience: 5 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hi there! As someone with daily experience keeping large groups of children engaged and happy, I hope I can help meet your family's babysitting needs! I'm a full-time teacher's assistant for a class of 12 toddlers and currently babysit one 3 yr old on a regular/as-needed basis. Helping children have fun while they learn and gain new skills and confidence is always the best part of my day! Aside from safety, I always prioritize children in my care feel heard and trust me to treat their thoughts/feelings with respect and kindness. I love leading cool crafts/science experiments, reading stories, and dancing to fun songs. I have 5 years of paid childcare experience with all ages and 1 year of tutoring experience in all subjects for middle/highschool age children. I have my own transport and can assist with driving, meals, and homework. I'm also an animal lover and comfortable with pets! In my spare time I love to read, bake new things, and spend time with friends :)

There are so many great things to say about Christine. She has been our babysitter going on 2 years now, and she has always been our most reliable source for care. Once you meet Christine, you will quickly learn how caring she is. What our family loves about Christine is that she is reliable, responsible, and focuses on kid-centered care. She always makes sure to send pictures of our son and updates us about him while we’re out. I especially appreciate her flexibility when it comes to our schedules. She has always made it work for us. I still remember the first time we had her over for babysitting and she had a list of questions ready to ask to ensure our son was protected and safe in her care. What made us trust her in the fist place is her qualified and experienced background in childcare. We asked our son what he loves about Christine and he said he loves playing basketball and board games with her. She is great at keeping him entertained and happy. She even follows all routines as instructed. We have built a strong bond with Christine, and I’m thankful for her in every way. Any family would be lucky to have her. I know we are! Thank you for everything you do for us, Christine. You have helped us in more ways than you could ever know.
