About Kristen

Experience: 4 yrs

I started working with kids when I was a teenager. I would babysit my dad's coworkers kids as well as working in a nursery at my church. When I was teenager I also started teaching swim lessons for ages 6 months to adults. So I've had a variety of experiences with children. In my spare time, I like to read, do crafts, do anything outdoors (hiking, swimming, running), and play board games. One thing you should know about me is I worked in a nursery from the age of 15-21. I also have experience teaching swim lessons for all ages and experience level. I have always loved working with kids. I also have experience through my degree in kinesiology in teaching physical activity/ sports to kids with special needs. We did an internship that taught us skills in keeping kids with special needs active.

We met with Kristen & impressed with her communication skills & everything about her! We just got new puppies, so she offered to help train them, we have a pool & she let us know she was CPR & life guard certified & most importantly she is kind and wonderful with our children. We threw her into a few days of dog training, errand running & a last minute, all day visit with our children & she excelled! Our kids loved being with her & she always kept us in the loop of their activities. 5 Stars!
