I am an experienced, friendly, and outgoing professional and graduate student who takes the safety and well-being of children as my first priority. I am currently in a graduate program for social work at the University of Texas at Austin, where I am focusing my studies on pediatric client care. I have had a dream and passion for working with children all my life, and I am fortunate to be studying for a career in that field. I currently intern at Manor ISD with elementary-aged children, providing therapeutic services to children with mental health concerns as well as their families. As a social worker, I believe in the whole child and uplift them as such! I pride myself on having a calm and holistic approach to childcare. I love integrating nature, learning, and age-appropriate activities into the experiences I share with children and their families! I have experience working with Read more children of diverse racial, religious, and developmental backgrounds. I look forward to getting to know your family and hopefully joining your children on their developmental journey.
