Shelene | Nanny • Family Assistant • Special Needs Companion I’m a warm, dependable caregiver with experience supporting children and families from newborn through young adulthood. My journey began with homeschooling my two sons and later transitioned into full-time professional nanny and family assistant roles, including long-term care for one family from infancy through the early teen years. I also grew up assisting my parents, who were foster parents to children with special needs—shaping my patience, adaptability, and compassionate approach early on. Professionally, I have hands-on experience supporting individuals on the autism spectrum and with cerebral palsy. With a nursing background and a bachelor’s degree in Education Administration, I bring a thoughtful blend of safety awareness, developmental support, and academic guidance. My caregiving style is calm, structured, and nurturing. I enjoy creating engaging routines that balance learning, play, independence-building, and real-world life skills. I’m comfortable caring for infants, toddlers, school-age Read more children, teens, and individuals with special needs. I value strong communication with families and aim to be a steady, reliable presence who supports both children’s growth and household flow. I love partnering with families long-term and helping children build confidence, curiosity, and independence in a safe, supportive environment.
