Meet Kristen
I provide childcare in my home in Harrisonburg. I have 2 daughters of my own who home school, so I provide childcare as a way to fund staying home with them. I have a master's degree in early childhood education as well as 15 years of experience caring for children ages 0-12 in various capacities, including doing in home care for the last 4 years (since the birth of my youngest daughter). I have a passion for nature and exploring outside with kids. We don't own a TV and kids in my house don't use screens of any kind. We are also passionate about eating healthy. The hourly rate I put on there is what I would charge if I was babysitting in your home, for care in my home, I charge $30 per child per day.
