A little bit about me

With 16+ years of experience providing home care across the full circle of life, I bring a unique blend of newborn expertise, end-of-life care, and a deep-rooted passion for supporting families through life’s most meaningful transitions.

As a certified Newborn Care Specialist and longtime CNA, my approach is grounded in developmental awareness, emotional presence, and holistic support. I view caregiving as a partnership built on trust, compassion, and communication.

I’ve supported children with special needs, including complex medical and developmental conditions, and have experience adapting care with empathy and skill. Most recently, I cared for a baby from 3 to 23 months (Oct 2023–June 2025) and another from newborn to 6 months (Apr–Sept 2023).

Whether nurturing new life or honoring an elder’s legacy, I strive to be a calm, dependable presence during seasons of change. This work has shaped me deeply, and I would be honored to be recruited to your home team.
