I look forward to connecting with your family!

A little bit about me

I’m 24 years old and have a degree in Sociology with focuses in Social Work, Criminology, and Psychology. I’ve spent nearly two years working as an RBT with children with autism and other developmental needs, and I’ve loved every second of it. I’m creative, patient, and passionate about helping kids grow and succeed. I enjoy crafts, storytelling, and finding fun ways to turn everyday moments into learning experiences. Outside of work, I love cozy nights in, music, and spending time with my dog, Charlie. I’m reliable, nurturing, and always ready to lend a helping hand.

I have a valid driver’s license and insurance, and drive a reliable 2008 Ford Escape.

I have spent many years caring for children of all ages, in homes and school settings. I have also taken care of children with disabilities.
