Hello! My name is Kristen, and I’m an experienced nanny dedicated to providing compassionate, reliable care for families in the DC area. I’ve had the privilege of working with children of all ages, including infants, and have experience supporting children with unique needs, such as autism and cerebral palsy. As someone who values patience, nurturing, and calm communication, I strive to create a positive environment where children feel safe, loved, and encouraged to grow. My experience also includes tutoring, assisting with child development, and managing school pick-ups, drop-offs, and appointments. With a reliable vehicle and a strong commitment to punctuality, you can count on me to be there when you need me. In addition to childcare, I’m happy to help with household tasks, including pet care—I love animals and enjoy attending to their needs as part of the family! You’ll find me to be responsible, trustworthy, and attentive to the Read more details that matter most to your family’s routine. If you think I might be a good fit for your family, I’d be happy to answer any questions or share more about my experience. I look forward to connecting with you and learning how I can support your family.
