Kristen M. - Seeking Work in Houston

Kristen M.
Hourly rate15.00 / hour
Years of childcare experience< 1 yr of experience
Hi there, My name is Kristen and I am a 23-year-old college student, pursuing my MSW online in hopes to work with children and teens who are walking through trauma and need a safe person to walk alongside them as they navigate life. I have nannied for about 8 years and I love it! I am experienced with newborns all the way to teens. It's no secret that I love kids, teens, and families, it brings me absolute joy to not only work for a family but to become apart of a families life. I particularly enjoy doing arts and crafts with kids like painting, drawing, sketching, beading, baking, and more complex art like paper mache. I also enjoy all the outside play! I am CPR/AED/and first aid trained with infants, kids, and adults, and I can provide references. I am open to working 20-25 hours a week any days ( including weekends) I am also open to family sharing ( looking after 2 families at once and having families split costs) I am also okay with doing overnight shifts

I'm 56 and able to relocate for live-out or live-in (preferably). I carried my babies everywhere. I'm internationally culturally aware. I'm
healthy and health-conscious, and clean! Unencumbered widow, previously an office assistant & Mom to 2 successful adult children, so I can handle anything and everything ...
My son graduated military school and started college at 16. My daughter has gone off to school and will be with her father. A ketogenic diet keeps me alert 21 hours a day, without caffeine. I'm full of energy!
I sold the house. I'm considering live-in as my preference because I'm always available.

Hello my name is Christian king . I just recently graduated from college with my bachelors in psychology. I want to become a counselor one day because I have a passion for helping children . I love to see them happy and succeed in life . In my previous classes I’ve had to do over a 100 hours of observations at a daycare so I know what it’s like when dealing with young children. Ive also been a camp counselor as well .
