I'm a Human Services professional with years of experience with children (and adults) of a wide range of ages and disabilities including physical, mental health and developmental/intellectual. I'm excited to get back to littles, as my last position was managerial, in mental health & substance abuse. I've worked as a nanny ages 6mos-12yrs as well as Skill Building with children in their home as well as the community at Childserve. I am a caregiver by nature, with ample patience who genuinely enjoys engaging with kiddos in playtime. I believe in building real relationships with the children I support. I pride myself on being able to diffuse situations before they begin, but of course, am able to hold ground during melt downs. Bonus!: I have years of experience in animal and veterinary care so if you also need support with fur kids, well that's just a bonus for me as well. Read more I look forward to chatting and finding out if I'm the right fit for your family!
