A little bit about me
Hi! My name is Chrissi. I I have always loved taking care of kids. Being able to help young minds grow and develop while providing a loving and kind environment is something thats very important to me. I have 5 brothers and one 2-year-old sister (I was her primary care taker from months 1-3 and still watch her from time to time) and plenty of experience babysitting these 6 in addition to other children in the family.. Since then I have nannied professionally for 6 years. I have helped with multiples and individual children in nanny shares as well as single families. I love to do crafts and fun activities that teach skills including but not limited to developing large and fine motor skill, speech, organization, problem solving, cooking, and independence. I always lead with love, compassion, understanding first and prioritize building emotional regulation skills and safe behaviors for littles.

Hi I’m Yasha! I am moving to Boston in a couple of months and am looking for a nanny job here in the Boston area. I’m a true new englander (even if I’m from CT). But regardless of the Red Sox vs. Yankees debate. One thing I am passionate about is creating a loving and safe environment for your child. One that fosters growth & learning through play, routine and communication. In my free time I work another job, spend time in nature and love to paint. I’m very excited to join the Boston life and hopefully be a good fit for your childcare needs!
