Whether it’s bedtime stories, overnights, or busy after-school evenings, I’m here to make your routines smoother and your kids feel safe, happy, and loved. 💕 I’m all about creating engaging educational activities, and am also happy to cook, help tidy up, and keep things running smoothly so parents can relax knowing everything’s taken care of on date nights out of the house!
“Jamie took wonderful care of our toddler. She was able to watch him, take him to the playground, feed him dinner, do bath time and put him to sleep to allow us to have a relaxing date night. She shared pictures during the whole time and sent updates. She is wonderful with kids and we will hire her again! ”

Hello families! My name is Christina, and caring for children has been my passion for as long as I can remember. Growing up in a family daycare, I was surrounded by the joy and energy of little ones, which inspired me to dedicate my life to early childhood education. With over 15 years of hands-on experience working in our family daycare, I’ve nurtured children of all ages, creating a loving and safe environment where they can learn and grow. I earned my Teacher’s Associate Certificate from UCLA to further my knowledge and skills, and I am currently an infant teacher at a preschool. I truly believe that every child deserves patience, warmth, and encouragement to thrive. My goal is to support families by providing the highest level of care, ensuring that both children and parents feel safe, valued, and supported. I look forward to the opportunity to work with your little ones and be a part of their early learning journey!
