I am the single mother of a special needs son. I work a full time job, but am looking to make ends meet by assisting children like my son and their parents. I am extremely reliable and full of fun ideas. Most recently I cared for for 2 children on the spectrum Thursday evenings. Currently, I'm available Tuesday evenings from approximately 5/5:30 to 8, some Thursdays 5ish to 6:30ish (depending on where you live) and some Friday or Saturday evenings. This is all dependent on where you live. I can do occasion Saturday evenings. I live in Scott Township. My son has food allergies and sensitivities so I am very understanding of that and have lots of books and resources to help parents who are new to dietary changes for their children. I have cared for typical children in the past, so all kids are loved and accepted by me!

I've had the good fortune of hiring Julia to care for my two autistic children a couple of months ago. I couldn't be happier. She is very caring with my children, and sensitive to their needs. Her attitude is very upbeat and positive, and she's happy to see them each time. She has been very punctual and reliable. I feel very confident in trusting her with my children while I'm away.
