Christina is amazing. My son never cries when I leave when she comes. He loves to see her and asks about her all week. I am so impressed with the energy she puts into kids. She plays with kids. She doesn't watch tv, use the computer or spend time on the phone. She spends time with your kids. What a sitter!
