Meet Martha

  • Occupational Therapist

  • Comfortable with pets

Hello there! My name is Martha, and I'm originally from Peru. I was a pediatric Occupational Therapist for a few years and I really loved and enjoyed my job. So in those years of practice I gained experience in: Early stimulation, fine and gross motor development, sensory integration, social behavioral, etc. Currently I'm going to Oakton college and I'm taking some classes to improve my English skills and after that I hope to be ready to take those classes that I need to validate my career. In the meantime, I'm working in childcare and I really like it! I've worked with a few families and it was a very nice experience, so I decided to keep going!
