“I am a very creative, detail oriented, caring person. I absolutely love working with children and caring for their everyday needs. I have my masters in Clinical Counseling Psychology with a focus on children because that is what I thought I wanted to do. I have realized since, that I would like to focus my knowledge and energy on the development of a few children on an everyday basis. I am a very active person. I train for triathlons in my spare time, love cooking, baking, reading, and spending time outdoors. If I was asked to describe in one sentence the reason I have chosen to be in the Nanny profession over any other it would have to be because I feel that I would be happier with the care of children in everyday life rather than constant crisis situations. I have been serving in some form of childcare experience for over 5 years and can honestly say I love what I do! I feel children are filled with so much love and potential. They simply need guidance, support, and care and love to grow into healthy, happy, functioning adults. My goal as a King County, WA Nanny is to provide a safe, structured, and nurturing environment for children to grow and learn. I am willing to do housekeeping that includes light cleaning and cooking. If I had to describe myself I would say that I am caring, dedicated, dependable, energetic, and trustworthy. Activities that I would like to incorporate in the daily plan for the family I care for would include crafts and outdoor time. If asked to describe the perfect family seeking a Nanny like me I would hope they would be fun loving, active, and down to earth.”
“I am writing in reference to Kristin. Kristin has acted as a mother’s helper and King County, WA Nanny for me. From the time I first met her it has been her loyalty and work ethic that has impressed upon me as she was working towards her studies in therapy and child psychology as well as her general positive attitude and sense of propriety. She truly cares for every child she works with, wanting to create an environment for them to flourish and bloom. Later as a therapist working with children I loved her use of play therapy and was able to witness the veracity of “play is the children’s language” with my own children and others. When Kristin first came to my assistance, she watched my 1-month old daughter on a daily basis, so I could return to work to support my family. Under her administrations for the following four years her love and laughter nurtured my young daughter and filled her with the curiosity for learning that I wanted for her. Kristin never faltered in supporting my parenting style and rules- if she ever disagreed with them it was never apparent, and she was able to offer competent and objectified opinions and options when asked. When it came time for my son to be born she was the obvious choice as a mother’s helper and stayed with my family to assist me. She has taken my children to parks, to museums, to libraries, and doctor’s appointments alike with breathtaking punctuality and without indecent. I have had the utmost confidence in her judgment, her love of children and maturity, and have always felt comfortable and relaxed leaving my children in her care.”
“I've had the distinct pleasure of knowing Kristin for five years. We met through mutual friends and forged a very fast friendship. Kristin is one of the most caring and compassionate people I've ever encountered. She has a way of just making everyone around her feel important and loved. She has many interests and knows how to juggle them. Kristin has spent a lot of time with my family. In this day and age, it's hard to find someone you trust enough to care for your children; luckily Kristin is at the top of that list. She has cared for my daughter countless times. She knows how to engage my child in many fun and educational activities. Our daughter loves spending time with Kristin as do I! Kristin is quick to my daughter's needs and can calm a two-year-old tantrum with silliness and love. Another thing about Kristin is her strength and dedication to being a King County, WA Nanny. To sum this up, some great words to use to describe Kristin are; kind, caring, generous, fun, dedicated, strong, silly and encouraging. She is truly an asset to anyone who she encounters.”
“I have had the privilege of supervising Kristin for the past year at the A Step Ahead Program. A Step Ahead is a partial hospitalization program for children and adolescents dealing with emotional and behavioral difficulties. Kristin has proven herself to be a dedicated, caring and a creative individual. She has established herself as a caring person with all patients she serves. She has demonstrated the ability to implement behavioral interventions and to communicate effectively with both patients and staff. She draws upon her education and experience to plan and implement treatment for a diverse population and her patients have responded accordingly. Kristin continues to develop her clinical intuition, knowledge base and insight on daily basis through case conferences, case observation, in- services, supervision and group-work. She is ethical and reliable, dedicated and determined and will no doubt continue to uphold these standards in the future. I would gladly have her as a King County, WA Nanny.”
“In my role as clinical manager I have been supervising Kristin for the past year in her work as a consulting therapist. Kristin provides individual, family, and play-therapy to a case load of mostly severely, chronically mentally ill children/adolescents with diagnosis as varied as Autism, ODD, AOHD and Bi-Polar Disorders. Kristin is one of the hardest working, most reliable and conscientious therapists here at Children's Services. She is always available to me and the families she works with and her attention to detail is outstanding. I feel without doubt that she would be an asset to any King County, WA Nanny Agency that hires her. She is well versed in evidenced based practices, psychopathology and assessment techniques in addition to being an excellent clinician.”
