Founder / President
Kristen founded A Nanny Match in 2015 to revolutionize the nanny/family matchmaking approach and bridge the gap between unregulated online platforms and the traditional agency structure by focusing on compatibility and providing a more personalized experience for parents and nannies. Her professional background includes Early Childhood Education, Recruitment, Administration, and more than 15 years of experience as a nanny before starting A Nanny Match.
Kristen's early experience as a teacher and a nanny provided her with hands-on experience in child development and experience working with families from diverse backgrounds. At Chelsea Art Galleries, she worked in administration and displayed exceptional customer care while catering to high-profile clients. She was a nanny and a professional recruiter for a college in Colorado before moving back to NY.
