About Carissa

I am a momma bear, which is where my patience, love, and nurturing traits kick in. I am 29 and have numerous years of experience with all ages including special needs children. Growing up with my cousin T., I knew she needed extra attention and affirmation. From low muscle tone, eating disorders, temper tantrums, fixation, ADHD, Autism etc I have learned some awesome skills. I have been blessed to see life through my cousins eyes of joy and appreciation for the little things in life. During my time in CA, I volunteered at RAD Camp, which is a volunteer run non-profit organization for children and adults with developmental disabilities. As well as many great memories teaching religious education to the adorable 3-7-year-olds at church. I now have the opportunity to use all my talents with new families. :) I have also been back grounded by 32 local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies in order to work for my husband's PI company.
