A little bit about me

As a mother of two boys with autism, I understand the importance of creating a safe, supportive, and structured environment where children feel comfortable and cared for.

I have experience managing busy schedules, multitasking, problem-solving, and communicating professionally with families. I’m comfortable helping with routines, homework support, light household tasks, meal preparation, and keeping children engaged through age-appropriate activities.

Families would describe me as attentive, compassionate, reliable, and calm under pressure. I value open communication, consistency, and building trust with both children and parents. I’m looking forward to supporting families who need dependable and caring help for their little ones.

More About Me

Relevant experience where I also cared for children were...

caring for my nieces and nephews from the newborn stage through age 16. I have experience providing age-appropriate care, preparing meals, assisting with daily routines, engaging children in activities, and ensuring a safe and nurturing environment.
In addition, I am the mother of two young boys with special needs. As their primary caregiver, I have extensive hands-on experience supporting developmental, behavioral, and communication needs, coordinating therapies and appointments, establishing structured routines, assisting with activities of daily living, and providing patient, compassionate care tailored to each child's individual needs.

Activities I enjoy doing with children...

I enjoy engaging children in activities that encourage learning, creativity, and active play. Some of my favorite activities include reading books, arts and crafts, sensory play, building with blocks and LEGO, puzzles, outdoor walks and playground time, imaginative play, baking simple treats together, music and dancing, educational games, and age-appropriate science or nature activities. I also enjoy helping children build confidence, independence, and social skills through positive encouragement and structured routines while creating a fun, safe, and nurturing environment.

My experience with special needs children...

My experience with children with special needs comes from being the primary caregiver for my two sons, both of whom have autism. Through this experience, I have developed a strong understanding of supporting children with different communication styles, sensory needs, and developmental abilities. I am experienced in creating structured routines, using patience and positive reinforcement, assisting with transitions, supporting daily living activities, and helping children feel safe and comfortable in new environments. I understand the importance of flexibility, consistency, and meeting each child where they are while encouraging their growth and independence.
