More About Me
Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...
have over 19 years of hands-on childcare experience, beginning when I was 11 years old and continuing throughout my life. I have cared for children of different ages, personalities, and needs, gaining experience with everything from everyday routines to keeping children safe, entertained, and comfortable. I am also a mother with 11 years of parenting experience, which has given me extensive firsthand experience with feeding, bathing, dressing, bedtime routines, school routines, homework, playtime, activities, discipline, and handling the everyday challenges that come with caring for children.
I understand that every child is different, and I strive to be patient, attentive, nurturing, and consistent while respecting each family's parenting style and expectations. I am comfortable creating a structured but fun environment where children can learn, play, and feel safe.

My experience with special needs children...
I also have over 20 years of personal experience being around and caring for a family member with special needs through my brother. Growing up alongside him has given me firsthand experience with the patience, understanding, compassion, flexibility, and attentiveness that caring for someone with additional needs can require.
This experience has taught me that every child is unique and may communicate, learn, socialize, or express their needs differently. I understand the importance of creating a calm, supportive, and judgment-free environment while following each child's individual routines and needs.
I am comfortable being patient, adapting activities to a child's abilities and interests, providing encouragement, and working closely with parents or guardians to ensure their child feels safe, respected, included, and cared for.
