About Krista
Experience: 8 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
Hi, I'm Krista! I am currently in my second year of medical school at LSUHSC in New Orleans. I'm looking to help out families in the New Orleans area with childcare. Most of my schoolwork is done online, so a lot of my time is free! Though I am still a while away from having to make a decision, I am fairly certain I will be going into pediatrics. I grew up the oldest daughter of a big family, so I have been in charge of childcare since I, myself, was little. I was a full-time nanny to a toddler for 2 years before moving to Nola. I consider myself a "Ms. Rachel brought to life." I will sing, dance, and play pretend with the younger kids (all in the spirit of learning). With adolescents, I consider myself young enough to still be relatable, yet old enough to be stern and intimidating. I have 5+ years of tutoring experience with three years of that being devoted to MCAT tutoring. I can tutor any high school STEM course.

Krista was a godsend for our family. Our little 17 month old baby had a near death experience and had heart surgery within the same month. Needless to say, we were not looking for just any nanny for our little miracle. As an ICU nurse, I had significant anxiety leaving my baby to return to work. From day 1 our son LOVED her. She made one of the most difficult situations for me so easy. She's energetic, creative, and loved bringing him to do fun activities. I honestly could not have asked for anything more. We are heartbroken that she has to relocate but she will always be apart of our family!
