My name is Kryslyn, and I have lived and professional experience working with and caring for children. I aim to be compassionate, nurturing, and establish a sense of safety and security. I will always put your child/children's needs first and respect your wishes. I can do housekeeping and meal prep as well. I am very flexible and willing to work with non traditional schedules. I have experience working with children with autism as well if needed. I love introducing learning and play into routines, especially in nature and art and sensory play. Whatever your child/children need, I am capable of providing. I am the oldest of 5 siblings as well, and have had to care for them a lot of my life through many stages. So I definitely have that maternal instinct and a ton of empathy and caring nature. Thank you for reading, and I look forward to hearing from you!
