“Hello, my name is Doreen, and caring for children has been a meaningful part of my life for over 30 years. I’m a reliable, patient, and compassionate caregiver with extensive experience supporting children of all ages, including those with ADD, ADHD, and Autism Spectrum Disorder. I take pride in creating a warm, safe, and structured environment where children feel understood, supported, and free to be themselves. Families describe me as dependable, calm under pressure, and deeply committed to each child’s well-being. I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident and at ease, and I’m dedicated to providing the kind of care you can truly count on.”
