I am 32 years old and have worked in special education since 2015, supporting children with mild to moderate autism and a variety of learning differences. Through my years of experience, I have developed a strong understanding of how to support each child’s individual learning, communication, behavioral, and social-emotional needs. I am currently available for babysitting on Friday evenings and weekends, making me a great fit for families looking for reliable care for date nights, weekend outings, or special events. I specialize in using positive reinforcement, visual schedules, clear routines, modeling, and individualized supports to help children feel successful and confident. I have experience supporting children with communication differences, emotional regulation, transitions, social skills, and daily living skills. I believe in being patient, consistent, encouraging, and meeting children where they are. I am also a credentialed Special Education Teacher and have training in evidence-based instructional approaches, including Orton-Gillingham. I enjoy Read more incorporating hands-on activities, movement, visuals, and play into learning and caregiving. What I love most about working with children is building meaningful relationships and creating an environment where they feel safe, understood, and celebrated. Every child is different, and I enjoy learning what motivates them and helping them become more confident and independent.
