A little bit about me

Hi, my name is Kristin, I am 23 years old and currently living and working in Indiana as a dental hygienist. I love children- throughout the last 10+ years I've worked as a babysitter for kids ages 18 months to 12 years old. I have also been a violin teacher for the last 8 years, teaching kids ages 5 to 13. Recently, I got diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome, and need to take a break from my career to rest my hand. I absolutely love children, and it would be a dream to nanny for a short period before I move on to hopefully become a wife and mother of my own someday. I was homeschooled in elementary school so I know the basics of meal prepping, picking up around the house etc and would be more than willing to help out as needed. I’m fun loving and adventurous- I love animals, playing violin and piano, baking, staying active, and reading my Bible. I would love to find a family that’s a good fit for me and vice versa, to help them raise happy, healthy kiddos!

A little bit about me

I am recent graduate from Asbury University where I studied Philosophy and Worship Arts. I truly enjoy being with children as I come from a large family which provided me with ample opportunities to babysit nephew and nieces ranging from 0-9 years old. I am a very active and outdoorsy person. I absolutely love reading, singing, arts and crafts, playing guitar/piano (could provide beginner-intermediate piano lessons for your children), and dogs. I am passionate about building community and healthy relationships as I have reaped their benefits in my personal development. Throughout my college career, I have worked and volunteered in a variety of settings that focused on cultivating healthy, safe, and edifying environments. These settings include: reconstructing and leading a mentor program through the Worship Arts Department, Worship Leading, Student Ambassador, Residential Life Assistant, Camp Counselor at Silver Heights Camp, IN. Please let me know if you have any questions!
