Christina Intranuovo
Christina Intranuovo has been cultivating her experience with children since 1992. As an avid babysitter, her number one request from parents was to keep their kids away from the television. This encouraged her to develop different crafts, games, and activities to keep kids busy. She was also an active volunteer at day care centers and worked as a park supervisor where she was responsible for several children. Since television is not accessible at these locations, she was forced to come up with different ideas to occupy the children’s time and is delighted to share these ideas with you.
