A little bit about me

Hi! I’m Ali, a passionate sitter who thrives on building real connections with kids. I love being a sitter because it lets me show up as someone who’s calm in the chaos, fun during the tough days, and always ready with a silly face or a coloring book to turn things around. Supporting kids through their ups and downs emotionally, behaviorally, and literally when helping with daily routines is where I feel most in my element. I’ve worked with kids in both home and school settings, including those with autism, behavioral challenges, and learning differences. As a Special Education Paraprofessional and an experienced ABA behavioral tech, I’ve got a strong background in supporting students’ emotional and behavioral needs with patience, empathy, and a dash of humor. From reinforcing IEP goals to guiding kids through sensory moments, I’m all about helping each child feel seen, supported, and celebrated. I’m fluent in Spanish, and trained in de-escalation, and positive behavior support.
