A little bit about me

Wife & proud mom 👧🏾👦🏿👦🏽👧🏽. Three by biology, one by love, including two with special needs. Patience, flexibility, unconditional love, and advocacy are my everyday life. 💕

I’m a Direct Support Professional (DSP) caring for individuals with developmental disabilities. Helping people is my calling. 🤍

I’m CPR, First Aid, and medication administration certified, so safety is always my priority. 🩺

I lead with love over formalities. 🌸 I’d rather be remembered for how I loved than how impressive I sounded. I’m a free spirit with a huge heart and an even bigger sense of humor. I listen. I don’t judge. I follow directions. ❤️

I believe children deserve to feel safe, seen, heard, and encouraged while you’re away. 🧸

If we’re not laughing at least a little every day… we’re probably doing it wrong. 😂💛

I hope to be part of your family’s village. ❤️🏡

“People may forget what you said or what you did, but they’ll never forget how you made them feel.” 💫

"It is my pleasure to recommend Christosha. She has cared for my child with exceptional kindness, patience, and professionalism. From the very beginning, she created a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment that gave me complete confidence whenever my child was in her care. Christosha is dependable, trustworthy, and always arrives prepared with a positive attitude. She interacts with children in a way that is both fun and educational while also maintaining appropriate structure and ensuring their safety at all times. My child genuinely looks forward to spending time with her, which speaks volumes about the caring relationships she builds. As a parent, peace of mind is invaluable, and Christosha consistently provided that for our family. I recommend Christosha without reservation to any family seeking a reliable and exceptional caregiver. She has been a tremendous blessing to our family, and I am confident she will make the same positive impact wherever she works."

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

In addition to raising four incredible honor roll children, including two with special needs, I work as a Direct Support Professional (DSP) caring for individuals with developmental disabilities. Between motherhood and my career, I’ve developed the patience, flexibility, and compassion to meet children where they are and help them thrive. I have experience caring for children of all ages and believe every child deserves to feel safe, valued, heard, and encouraged to reach their full potential.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I love creating fun, meaningful experiences that keep kids active, engaged, and smiling! We enjoy arts & crafts, reading, baking, games, sensory play, dance parties, outdoor adventures, parks, playgrounds, nature walks, scavenger hunts, water play, swimming (with parent permission and constant supervision), library visits, and hands-on animal experiences at zoos, aquariums, farms, and nature centers. 🦮🐢

I also enjoy attending church, Bible study, church events, school games, band performances, and other activities that support and celebrate the children I care for. I love organizing playdates and, with parents’ approval, bringing our children together for park days and fun outings so they can build friendships, confidence, and social skills.

Every activity is centered around safety, learning, laughter, creating happy memories, and helping children feel loved, supported, and encouraged every step of the way. 💛🌈

The most important part about being a nanny...

To me, being a nanny is about genuine care, meaningful connection, unwavering support, trust, and advocacy. Every child deserves to feel safe, loved, heard, and celebrated for exactly who they are. That’s the kind of caregiver I strive to be every single day. ❤️

My experience with special needs children...

As both a mom to two children with special needs and a Direct Support Professional (DSP), I have experience caring for children with developmental, intellectual, and physical disabilities. I understand that every child has unique strengths and needs, and I provide care with patience, love, encouragement, and respect. Whether a child needs extra emotional support, physical assistance, or simply someone who believes in them, I’m committed to creating a safe, inclusive environment where they feel accepted, confident, and celebrated. My goal is to help every child thrive while giving parents peace of mind that their little one is in caring, capable hands. 💙

The most important part about being a nanny...

My favorite nanny moments are the morning hugs, the excited faces waiting by the door for me, and hearing, “Can you stay?” Those little moments remind me that I’ve earned a child’s trust and love, and there’s no better feeling than that. 🥹💕
