I have been a foster parent for the past 10 years, but before that I have been caring for children since I was 13 years old thought Sunday school and babysitting opportunities! As a special needs foster mom I am passionate about caring for people with different abilities. I have cared for infants, children, teens, and adults with Down syndrome, traumatic brain injuries, diabetes, cerebral palsy, non verbal, autism, multiple dystrophy, and much much more. I am a passionate person that loves to go above and beyond for my families. Growing up and now Mister Rogers is my role model! On my off days I love spending time with my kids and husband, hiking with my three giant dogs, and riding on my horse! I believe communication is key with my families and fun is a must!

    Caitlin is amazing! We love having her help. She has a wonderful connection with my son, he literally dances when he hears that Caitlin is coming the day. He is so Independent playing with Caitlin that I can truly disconnect and get other things done. With her experience in special needs she is even able to provide some of the special cares such as his feedings, which is a wonderful added bonus service for me. Such a blessing!
