Children energize me and keep me loving life! I have been taking care of children for twenty years. I love thinking of creative activities focused on helping kids explore their environment and their imagination. Some of the things I love to do with kids include: cooking, arts and crafts, building, sports, games, and making chores fun! I have a Bachelors degree in Psychology and am currently a full time foster care social worker. I have experience taking care of children of all ages and developmental abilities. Kids describe me as warm, kind, and silly. I am a naturally calm and patient person. My professional career has given me rich experience working with children who have a wide range of behavioral and emotional challenges, including: ADHD, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Autism, Pervasive Developmental Disorder, Reactive Attachment Disorder, Sensory Integration Disorder, etc. My work has taught me to be a creative and Read more resourceful problem solver. Most of all, I love supporting families! Let me know how I can support your family!
