A little bit about me
I am currently coming back to the Austin area from Houston. I have worked in ABA for 10 years while in Houston. As I began to relocate, I have noticed there is a lack of support for children with special needs. ABA has become huge in the Houston area. I have passion for working with individuals who do require a little extra care so I did some searching and it brought me here.

A little bit about me
I am a recent college graduate with the hopes of attending medical school in the future. Until then, I am looking to do something else I am deeply passionate about- caring for children and families. I have more than six years of paid childcare experience. I have travelled with families, participated in long-term placements, and fulfilled short term needs as well.
My family has six children, of which I am the second oldest. Our lively home, and my position in the lineup, made childcare a passion of mine from the start! I work with children of all ages and have a clean driving history.
I enjoy coordinating activities, encouraging movement over screens, and have a deep heart for learning.
I recognize the privilege that exists in stepping into your family's home and promise to do so with the utmost respect and responsibility.
