A little bit about me

Hi there! 👋

I’m so glad you stopped by my profile! I’ve spent the past 10+ years working with children of all ages—from snuggly newborns to independent teens (and everything in between!). I specialize in supporting kids with special needs and love creating an environment where every child feels seen, capable, and celebrated for who they are.

Over the years, I’ve worn a lot of hats: caregiver, mentor, activity planner, homework helper, and sometimes even dance party DJ or superhero sidekick. Whether it’s building routines, supporting sensory needs, or helping a child develop new skills, I bring patience, creativity, and genuine care to everything I do.

Families describe me as reliable, upbeat, and great at connecting with kids on their level. My goal is always to make your child’s day brighter (and your day a little easier!).

If you’re looking for someone experienced, dependable, and full of heart, I’d love to chat and see how I can support your family!
