Im a student at university of Houston downtown, my major is management, I’ve been working with kids for two years, I’m a teacher at my local church for ages 9-11, I love listening and helping them, I try to learn more everyday not only because I love what I do but also because I like children to feel safe, comfortable and happy also for parents to feel comfortable leaving their children in other hands.

My name is Christel Parr. I have three wonderful children, ages 26, 24, & 18years old. My passion has always been working with children since the young age of 12, babysitting for families around the neighborhood. I was a preschool teacher, a live-in nanny, and an on-call nanny with 9 years of professional experience. I then went on to become a mother of my own children. I took time off from working to raise my family and volunteer at my children’s school.I have come back to the workforce and currently work for Nannies of The Woodlands. I work as a on-call nanny for families in need of back up or childcare. I worked for The Children’s Lighthouse Preschool from March 2022-October 2022, as a lead teacher for the 2-3 year old class. I have successfully completed an online certification of Child Growth and Development from infancy- School Age 2022. I will be continuing to add certifications to further my learning. My passion is working alongside families to create a healthy growing learning environment and schedule that best suits the family’s needs. I keep a daily based journal along with photos to keep the parents in touch with the daily happenings and events. I will also incorporate a learning environment along with attending any classes to promote the child’s development. I am currently finishing my certification in Newborn Care Specialist and Infant Sleep Trainer.
