A little bit about me

Dear family,
I am a kindhearted southern bell from Alabama. I worked with two wonderful live in families, and loved my time with both! Communication with the families is the number one priority for me.
I grew up playing soccer and running track. I have also played piano since I was a small child and spent many years in band. I love to stay active and consider myself a very involved nanny. The best days with both families were spent out doing fun activities. I traveled with my second family quite a bit, and it was my favorite part of that job.
I love to travel and am always ready for spur-of-the-moment trips. I get along well with pets and love to swim.
I really look forward to connecting with your family!

A little bit about me

I have an extensive background in working with and supporting autistic youth and adults. I am a core member of my sister's care team and have 13 years of neurodiverse childcare experience. As I pursue a career in disability and accessibility work, I am looking to support myself while following my passion for working with youth.

I grew up on the East Coast and have a biochemistry degree with a disability studies minor from Connecticut College. I believe that youth, especially those who express themselves differently than what is considered "normal," are far too often completely invalidated and disregarded. Taking time to listen to their experiences and connect with them as individuals illuminates the often justified root of their reactions. Working with young people brings me great joy, and it is a privilege to connect with them.

Hi I have Supervised, supported and provided direction to children in a Rapid Assessment Residence for "hard to place" and MRDD children while also keeping records on individual children, including daily observations and information about activities, meals served, and medications administered. There’s nothing better than seeing children’s faces light up each time they learn something. It brings endless joy! Also, because you’re spending so much time with the children it allows you to experience the child’s transformation first hand.
