I have worked with children in various settings for the last thirty years : public or private preschools and childcare centers, including 7 years running my own licensed family daycare; and after school programs both public and private. 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 fourteen years, I've worked as a nanny and household helper in private homes, and very much enjoyed playing with and tutoring the children while developing a caring, creative relationship with them. I also like working with pets! Letters of recommendation from my previous employers are available, and my most recent employer has left a rating on my site. I am vaccinated and boosted against Covid 19, and I am certified for CPR and first aid. However, when my last nanny job ended, I made Read more part-time commitments to two families I can't simply drop. That means I don't have mornings available Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. If it still 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.
