A little bit about me
My name is Kristine and I have more than 15 years of experience in the child care profession. I have been a preschool teacher and previously have worked as a part-time nanny for children ages ranging from 1 month- 5 years. I love interacting with children, encouraging them to find an early appreciation for literature and music. But most importantly, I love watching them grow, guiding them in their daily challenges, and celebrating with them in their accomplishments.
Looking forward to hearing from you and seeing if I’m a good fit for your family!

A little bit about me
My goal as stay-at-home mom was to provide my children with a great positive and memorable childhood. In providing them with a structured yet fun home life, I emphasized the importance of their studies during school nights. I encouraged them to strive for success, as I knew their potential. My competitive nature inspired them to finish in the top 20% of their class because my overall goal was to prepare them for college. I am now the proud mama of 3 college graduates. One from SDSU and 2 from USC. I recognized the importance of showing up for my children during all of their events and volunteered regularly in all of their classrooms. I raised all of my children to accept and be inclusive of everyone because it was my hope that they would grow up to become well-rounded human beings. Now that I am officially an empty-nester I would enjoy nothing more than to share my nurturing skills with another little human being. Motherhood was my calling, as it was both fulfilling and rewarding.

Nanny Hanna
"Hanna had a warm and patient approach to connect with the children of different ages.
She was supportive and encouraging of each student and trying to help them learn, interact, and build confidence.
I believe her skills and conduct will transfer well into a nanny position."

Nanny Sofi
"My kids love Sofi! Sofi is the kindest and sweetest. She helped with my kids while I had to work. I was nervous at first finding someone to trust with my kids but soon realized I had nothing to worry about with Sofi. She stared with our family when my kids were 4, 6 and 9. She formed relationships with each of my kids and took such good care for them. I highly recommend Sofi!!"
