Hello, I am a published author, Certified NLP Professional, have an Occupational Science Degree and have worked with special needs for about 15 years. I have traveled and worked extensively in homes as a life coach, family/relationship coach and much more. I have worked with all ages, many different and unique needs, and seen more than I knew existed. I cannot have kids of my own and I adore them. I have found ways to connect with both kids and adults that others seem challenged with. I have turned kids failing classes into A students. Love. Consistency. Presence. Understanding. Curiosity. Integrity. These are the core values that seem to open up and transform minds. I have lived, explored and seen the world. What's missing is the heart and connection of family. I have so much to offer and am looking for a family who would appreciate my experience and maturity. Read more I also love to cook, tutor, and I would be happy to assist with house work, yard work and whatever else comes up. Life is unpredictable and I am experienced in adaptability and solution oriented.
