A little bit about me

With over seven years of professional childcare experience—including specialized care for children with autism, cerebral palsy, and Costello syndrome—I have developed a deep understanding of how to provide nurturing, attentive, and individualized support in the home.

As a licensed CNA and CPR/BLS certified caregiver, I bring both medical awareness and a deep sense of compassion to each role. My experience ranges from newborns to teens, with a strong focus on developmental milestones, sensory play, and structured routines tailored to each child’s abilities and needs. I pride myself on being flexible, professional, and respectful of each family’s values and privacy.
