Meet Christine

  • Comfortable with pets
  • Has a car

I have worked with children in various settings for over thirty years: public or private preschools, childcare centers, after school programs, and 7 years running my own licensed family daycare. I completed 3 years at University of California, Santa Cruz, and 32 units of Child Development courses at Pasadena City College (transcripts available upon request). For the last fifteen years, I've worked as a nanny and household helper in private homes. I've very much enjoyed playing with and tutoring the children while developing a caring, creative relationship with them. I also like working with pets! References from and contact information for my previous and current employers are available on request. I am vaccinated and boosted against Covid 19, influenza and RSV, and I am trained in CPR and first aid. If it seems like I might work out for your family, please message me and I will respond asap.

Christine is a God-send! She plays with our kids and imagines with them much to everyone's delight. She's so knowledgeable about child development and how to effectively communicate with children at age-appropriate levels. She's also just an incredibly pleasant person to have around. What a blessing.
