Booked by 5 families in Mountlake Terrace, WA

Hello, my name is Kristina! I am a 24 year old professional nanny and piano teacher. I have a DTA in Music and a real estate license. My qualifications include a CPR certification, specialized Child Development training, and a food handler permit. I offer extensive childcare experience and excel in providing comprehensive household services. These include pet care, laundry, meal preparation, homework assistance, efficient errand management, and facilitating transportation for children's activities. Rest assured, my genuine enthusiasm for working with children and pets translates into top-notch care and support you can count on. My background entails a range of impactful roles, including serving as a kids' choir director, a summer camp leader, and a piano instructor catering to both kids and adults. In addition, I have a notable tenure as a preschool teacher at UCIC. My experience extends to being entrusted as a nanny for multiple families, where I've adeptly cared for babies, toddlers, kids, teens and special needs children. My responsibilities have also included skillfully managing households with children and pets during parents' business trips. Driven by an authentic passion for nurturing children's growth and well-being, I'm dedicated to making a positive impact on all the families I serve.

Kristina is incredible. I was so beyond stressed to leave my 2 year old daughter to go to work for the first time and Kristina was so good with her it put me totally at ease. She is honest, thoughtful, kind, compassionate and trustworthy. I would recommend her without any hesitation. I feel so incredibly lucky to have found her and know my daughter is taken care of while I’m at work.
