A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Alexandra, and I’m a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) with experience in both childcare and behavioral support. I have worked with children of various ages, helping them learn, grow, and build essential skills in a safe and nurturing environment.

In addition to providing direct care and developmental support, my daily duties include assisting with structured activities, maintaining a clean and organized environment through light clinic housekeeping, and preparing meals or snacks for the children when feasible. My background in applied behavior analysis (ABA) helps me create positive learning experiences tailored to each child’s individual needs. I’m passionate about fostering an environment where every child feels supported, understood, and encouraged to reach their full potential.

Hello! My name is Ireland, I am 27 years old. I have over 5 years of experience in child care.
