I hold two degrees-including a Master's in Special Education-and have 15 years of experience supporting both high- and low-functioning individuals with diverse learning and developmental needs. I previously served over 5 years as a Nanny/Mother's Helper for a family with two young children. I am passionate about fostering curiosity, hands-on exploration, and healthy, active living. Whether structuring fun learning activities or providing attentive care, I bring enthusiasm and structured support to every home. Availability: Part-Time (Evenings & Weekends) Commitment: Seeking a long-term role (1-2 years) with a family looking for reliable, high-quality care.
