I'm an experienced caretaker that has been working with children for more than half of my life. I have a lot of experience working with individuals with special needs on behavioral, emotional, and developmental spectrums. I have specialized training to help families with specialized needs. Currently, I am a student working towards my doctoral degree in clinical psychology and working as a mental health professional with all ages. On my way here, I obtained a Master's degree in both Forensic Psychology and Applied Behavior Analysis. I am currently certified in CPR / BLS with additional training Applied Behavior Analysis, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Life Coaching / Mentoring. I'm certified as a Registered Behavior Technician, Qualified Mental Health Professional, and a Life Coach. If I sound like someone that could help your family, go ahead and message me. I look forward to hearing from you!

    Chrissy is an exceptional caregiver for my daughter with special needs. We started working with her last month. She has been punctual (which is HUGE), thorough, and responsible. She is observant and asks great questions. Most important, she is gentle, calm, and loving with my daughter. Her ABA background was such a plus. I could not have asked for a better person to help me with my daughter's morning routine. I highly recommend her for any parent looking for someone to care for their child.
