A little bit about me

I am a therapist and very passionate about it! In my experience, it informs every part of my life, especially in the way that I serve and care for others. Children have always been a bright light in my life and would love to extend this care towards supporting a family with a child/children. I believe that my past experience with raising a child from birth, working as a camp counselor to support individuals with special needs, as well as coaching gymnastics to gymnasts (ages raining from 1yr-16yrs old) have well-equipped me to provide nanny/babysitting services.
