About Alana
Experience: 10 yrs
For over 25 years, I've been dedicated to nurturing children's growth and making a positive impact on their lives as a special education teacher. My graduate degrees enhances my approach to care. I'm patient, creative, and friendly, and I enjoy playing board games and educational puzzles. I have experience with special needs children, and I'm certified in First Aid Training and CPR Training. I also have experience with adaptive equipment, feeding tubes and pumps, communication devices, etc. I follow parents' lead when enforcing household rules, and I'm happy to communicate updates through your preferred method. I'm comfortable caring for several child of any age, or 1 adult/elderly person and a time, and I'm willing to help with cooking, carpooling, light housekeeping, travel, crafts, and swimming supervision, etc. I have a car and am comfortable with pets. Knowing I can support your family and provide a safe, enriching environment for your child brings me immense joy.
