Chrystal $25 per hour for 1 child

Hi – My name is Chrystal, and I offer child care services. I have about 3 years of experience working with children with autism and various backgrounds in the classroom setting. I genuinely enjoy working with kids and aim to create a safe, warm, and engaging environment where they feel comfortable and supported. I enjoy photography and engaging in creative activities such as arts and crafts, games, etc. I also drive and am happy to help with school pickups and activities as needed. Please note that I’m allergic to cats and have a fear of large dogs, so I prefer pet-free homes or those where pets are secured.

Cheryl was a FANTASTIC caregiver for my (then) 4 year-old child. We’ve since moved from the area, but my child STILL asks for Cheryl all of the time! Cheryl is the mother of adult children so she’s well-versed on kids of all ages, and needs. She knows how to create a safe, yet fun environment for kids. She’s a true childcare gem; compassionate, loving, empathetic, and so knowledgeable about all different aspects of childcare! Your kid(s) will absolutely adore Cheryl, and so will you!!! Bonus points because not only is Cheryl great with kids, she’s ALSO absolutely wonderful with pets!! - she happily took care of our dog while caring for our kiddo!
