I am a certified speech-language pathologist working with children in the schools. I have been a babysitter and nanny since I was a teen, and I have experience working in a daycare center as well. I have experience with a variety of special needs. I’m comfortable with housework, homework, errands, and other household needs. I have a dog (and love them!) but I am also open to households with other pets. I believe in caring for children with a gentle, loving approach. I’ve been trained in a number of behavior management programs through my career and believe that positive, trusting relationships are key to a child’s success. Giving children agency and respect in their life is very important to how I care for kids.
