I have worked with children all my life. Before college, I was a nanny during several summers. As a therapist, I've worked with children over the lifespan to develop fine motor/self-help skills and confidence. I have raised 2 of my own who are now adults. I believe children all have unique gifts and talents that require love, patience, and a balance of structure and fun to develop!
