A little bit about me

Compassionate, patient caregiver with personal experience supporting autism and children of all ages. I create a calm, structured environment where children feel safe, understood, and free to be themselves. I’m attentive to emotional needs, big feelings, and sensory sensitivities, while keeping routines smooth and days engaging.
I live in Ionia currently with my husband and our golden retriever but we are working on moving to Grand Rapids, and I’m comfortable in busy, pet-friendly homes. I bring a grounded, reliable energy that parents can trust and kids feel safe around. I am first aid and CPR certified as well☺️
