About Christine

I'm a fun-loving outdoor educator and caregiver with 20+ years of experience bringing joy and adventure to primary-aged kids. As a Youth Activities Coordinator and Nanny at Keekos Kiddos in Bend, Oregon, I turn everyday moments into exciting explorations--leading hiking, paddling, and skiing adventures that spark creativity, teamwork, and a sense of wonder. My background includes years as a teacher creating playful, multi-sensory learning experiences, guiding youth adventure camps, and mentoring kids in the wilderness. Safety and security always come first: I'm fully certified in Child Care Health & Safety, child abuse recognition, First Aid, CPR, and Wilderness First Aid, so every adventure stays secure and worry-free. I create a warm, structured space where kids feel safe to explore, laugh, and grow into confident little adventurers.
