Hi there! My name is Lani (she/her/hers) and I am in my final year of occupational therapy school at Tufts University. While completing my full time fieldwork, I am looking to help out families in the area who might need occassional evening or weekend support. I provide typical babysitting services, as well as tutoring, lifeguarding, and pet and household care. I have had many years of experience with kids of all ages, learning abilities, and temperaments as a camp counsellor, water safety instructor, tutor for children with various cognitive and emotional challenges, and behavior therapist for autistic children and young adults. I am CPR/AED certified and have experience with wheelchair users, assistive devices, and communication systems. I would describe myself as bubbly, creative, patient, flexible, dependable, and nurturing. In my spare time, I enjoy hiking with my partner and our 8yo yellow lab, rock climbing, arts & crafts, listening to Read more music, and drawing/painting! Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any more questions :)
