A little bit about me

My name is Christy & I have over 16 years of experience working with young children along with a degree in Early Childhood Education.

The majority of my experience is with infants, ages 12 wks to 12 mos. 10 years of this experience was working for an upscale 5-star child care facility. Job responsibilities included managing a classroom of 7 infants, keeping daily records for each child, ensuring that all requirements were met on a daily basis, writing lesson plans & developing age-appropriate activities based on individual development.

For one year, I was a nanny for twins, 8 months of age at the start. After that 2 years caring for 2 boys, ages 3 months & 13 months at start. Daily notes for each child, including feedings, nap times, activities & special communication when necessary. Lesson plans provided, including weekly trips to the local libraries, parks & other fun/educational activities (all seasons).
