Hi! I'm a former camp counselor- I've done Girl Scout camp, arts camp, and have worked with adults with special needs. I've also been involved in therapies for children with autism spectrum disorders for about 3 years. At the moment I am an instructor at a children's fitness center, so I love being active and finding a variety of activities that your kids with enjoy. I've been babysitting regularly for about six months and love having play dates, going to the park, and getting the kids involved in making dinner and doing household chores in an age-appropriate way.
