Meet Christine

• Comfortable with pets

Hello, My name is Christine Gerhardt (aka: Ms. Chris). I am 47 years old, have been a nanny for over 25 years, CPR and first aid certified, and own my own car. I am experienced in caring for children ranging in age from newborn to 12 years, I tend to stay with a family from birth on. I enjoy watching a child grow and develop over time. When a child is at an early age, I strive to fill the need for socialization and building frienships. Library programs, park play dates, and baby and me classes programs help to introduce and build the ideas of teamwork, sharing, and friendship. Preparing lesson plans centered around fun theme weeks for the preschool set is my passion. I enjoy finding that "special something" in each child and bringing it to life. Using the child's major interest, for example: trains, dinosaurs, or fairies, I Read more build on that to nurture a love of reading and writing or to encourage learning an everyday skill. When working with older children, I strive to encourage self-awareness and responsibility for ones own actions. Helping them to set meaningful priorities and develop coping strategies to succeed in life. I would be happy to send you my resume and letters of recommendation if you feel I would be a good fit for your family. Thank you for your consideration.

Trust & safety
