Hello! My name is Kelly, and I’m a nurturing, dependable, and energetic caregiver with a true passion for working with children. I have two wonderful adult children of my own (ages 21 and 18), and over the years, I’ve gained extensive experience caring for children of all ages, including those with autism, ADHD, and other special needs. I believe every child is unique and deserves a safe, loving, and enriching environment to thrive in. I use positive reinforcement and gentle redirection to encourage good behavior and build confidence. With a calm and patient approach, I strive to create a fun, structured, and supportive atmosphere where children feel secure and valued. In addition to my hands-on experience, I’ve studied American Sign Language (ASL) at St. Pete College and love incorporating basic ASL into daily routines, with parental permission. This not only supports early communication skills but is especially helpful for children Read more who are nonverbal or have speech delays. Safety is a top priority for me—I am certified in CPR and First Aid, and I drive a reliable, well-maintained Honda Pilot with plenty of room for car seats and safe travel to and from activities. Whether we’re exploring creative arts and crafts, diving into imaginative play, or working on social and emotional skills, I’m dedicated to helping each child reach their full potential while having fun and feeling loved. I'm currently looking for a family who values trust, open communication, and a team approach to childcare. I’d love the opportunity to support your family and be a positive influence in your child’s life.
