Hi! I'm Karen, I come with over 20 years experience supporting children, teens, and adults with autism, ADHD, developmental disabilities, and challenging behaviors. I have a Masters degree in Special Education and a certification in Autism Spectrum Disorder. I specialize in working with individuals who need extra patience, structure, and understanding. Whether your loved one requires support with emotional and sensory regulation, executive functioning, refusal behaviors, or high-intensity needs, I have the professional expertise to provide a safe, structured, and calm environment. If you're searching for an experienced caregiver who is confident, compassionate, and comfortable supporting higher-needs children, teens, or adults, I'd love to connect with your family. I am CPR/AED/First Aid Certified. I am available on weekends and weekdays after five.
