I have been caring for others for 11yrs. I am an LVN with 3yrs experience and absolutely love being able to care for others. I am hoping to gain more experience with children of all ages outside from the traditional clinical setting. I have a 6yr old daughter myself and I have been trained to care for children from infancy to adolescents. Children with special needs and children requiring more extensive 1:1 care as well as children with behavioral and psychiatric diagnoses. I’ve experienced a little of each and find that it can be quite challenging at times but very rewarding. I would be honored to care for your children when needed and hope that you feel at ease knowing your little ones are in safe hands. I consider myself to be a very reliable, honest and trustworthy, patient and responsible and lets not forget qualified person.
