A little bit about me

Hello! My name is Shannon. I've had almost 9 years of experience with all types of kids from newborn to teenagers, and from elite to special education. I've cared for many special needs children, having the most experience in autism. I like to take kids on outings, and anything having to do with the outdoors when the weather permits. I moved to Burbank in February to attend school for makeup, and build my skills. I’m a freelancer so I am very flexible with meeting your needs. I am originally from Portland, Or, and love the outdoors! I have loved working with children for asking as I can remember, I have a big family and was always the caretaker. I am a certified in advanced childcare at the American Red Cross, which means I know how to administer CPR/AED and the Heimlich when needed. I'm absolutely on board with meeting up and testing the waters, feel free to message me about any questions or offers, I'll be happy to hear from you, my email is [email hidden]! :)
