I started my career as a professional nanny almost 24 years ago & can't imagine doing anything else as a job! I specialize in caring for children newborn to 4 years old, but I also have experience caring for older children and have cared for 10 sets of twins. The position to be long-term (1yr +) & the taxes need to be taken care of by a payroll company. I'm looking to care for an infant/toddler or infant twins plus up to 3 siblings. I am available on Fridays between 6 a.m. & 6pm, but I would prefer to work between the hours of 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Looking to work 8 to 12 hours every Friday. I am available to start February 7th, 2025.

Kristina is an excellent nanny for babies and young children. She nannied for us and took care of our son from ages 5 months to 17 months. During that time frame she demonstrated patience and compassion with our baby through all the ups and downs of the big emotions of being a baby/almost toddler. Kristina is very experienced and practiced gentle parenting techniques including comforting our son when he cried, redirection when frustrated, and helped to teach him to communicate through basic sign language (more, eat, milk, please, thanks). She was also very thoughtful and hyper-organized in her approach to child care. She kept detailed written schedules for our son, packing lists, and to do/to buy lists for everything our baby needed. She organized all of his frequently used items like burp cloths, bottles, spoons, diapers, wipes, and clothes in easy to access spots around our home. At our request she also did our baby’s laundry and would go through his clothes monthly and put away any he’d outgrown. Kristina is also very creative. As our son grew older (after one year of age) she did art project activities with him by placing paint on his feet and making holiday-themed art out of his footprints. She also created flash cards out of pictures of our family members to help our son learn everyone’s names, which was especially great for those family members who live further away. Overall Kristina is an experienced baby nanny and would be a great addition to any family looking for a nanny for their baby!
