About Kristin

Experience: 2 yrs

I am a senior nursing student with mostly pediatric interest, 2 years of inpatient experience. I have worked for three major hospitals in the city, ages ranging from newborn to early 20's. I have mostly nursing care experience in comparison to education experience. While nursing isn't quite education, I have always received praise for how I interact with children and my obvious love for it. Understanding a child's developmental needs is a basic requirement for my job. I have also coached toddlers to adults in figure skating and tutored elementary and high school ages. Of course, I have babysat before for a number of families, but would like to stay with one family on a longer term basis roughly 25-30 hours a week. I love to teach and give a child a worthwhile activity. There is nothing better than seeing a child succeed. On a much more serious note, I have worked on a newborn ICU, meaning that I've cared for babies with mild to severe medical conditions and special needs of many kinds. I have experience working with children with physical disabilities both within a hospital and out in the community with my coaching. I am CPR/BLS certified, have EMT experience, cook, clean, bake, care for pets, help with homework, almost anything kid related. However, I do not have a car of my own in the city but I am licensed. I can provide my resume, previous job evaluations, and references upon request. I do not need or want other job benefits.
