Kristina $15 per hour for 1 child
Hi! My name is Kristina and I am a current sophomore at John Carroll University studying Primary Education with a concentration in Intervention Specialist. I have reliable transportation and am in the process of becoming adult and pediatric CPR certified. I’m also happy to help with pets while caring for children. I’m comfortable with feeding, playing with, and letting pets outside, as well as taking dogs for walks if needed. I’m happy to discuss your pets and their individual routines and needs. I have been working with a PreK-8th grade theater program for over five years. This past summer I have also had the opportunity to be an instructor for a PreK-4th grade theater summer camp. I have also been involved in volunteering with 4th and 6th graders in more academic settings. Throughout these experiences, I have been able to help with homework, facilitate educational activities, provide fun entertainment to children, and get to know each child's specific needs. Overall, I’m looking forward to meeting families and becoming someone you can trust to provide your children with safe, caring, and fun experiences while you’re away!
