A little bit about me
I have a year and a half of nursing school as well. I love the outdoors: hiking, biking, swimming and anything to do with the arts. I enjoy painting, singing and acting in community theater in my free time as well as going to concerts and the ballet. I am extremely patient and warm, I have great communication skills and work in tandem with the parents in all aspects of the children's care. I am flexible, dependable and overtly punctual.

A little bit about me
I’m a special needs mom, a Mental Health First Aid responder, a CPR-certified, DBT- and RBT-trained childcare professional with over 20 years of experience — and the kind of person who will love your child like my own while knowing exactly how to support them.
I’ve raised a gifted child with autism and ADHD successfully who is thriving, as an honors student on the deans list and away at college double science majoring to preparing to become a veterinarian. I believe the success of my own child speaks for my experience. I’ve assisted in navigating IEPs, managed dietary sensitivities, and built enriching programs for hundreds of kids ages 2–12 in both faith based and educational settings. I show up with patience, training, and heart — every single time.
I’d love to meet your family.
