Hello! I have recently moved from Long Island to Waxhaw. I am seeking employment and opportunities to share my services. I have a bachelors degree in psychology and a minor in psychology of the exceptional child. I have also taken courses in studio art, which include ceramics, drawing, painting, and design. I am also a certified in American Red Cross as a Swimming Instructor. Over the past 6 years I worked for Western Suffolk BOCES at James E. Allen Elementary school. I was a teachers assistant in a one on one ABA program. I also provided care for a family with a little girl on the autism spectrum for 5 years. I taught her how to swim as well as other individuals who are differently-able with exceptional needs and have communication disorders. I am an experienced house and pet sitter, and have provided assistance at "Paint Nite". I am passionate about caring for many different kinds of people and animals. I am interested in a variety of career pursuits from a recreation approach. I am passionate to bring therapy to individuals through exorcise, music, art, and animals. I am creative, energetic, animated and engaged with those whom I provide services for. I look forward to new opportunities and meeting new people.

    Courtney has been a regular babysitter for our family for four years. We have a daughter with Autism, and Courtney is an extraordinary special needs babysitter. There are some people who have a natural gift for for relating to kids with Autism, and Courtney is one of those people. My daughter adores her. Courtney is warm, creative, honest, reliable and generally a great person. I recommend her very highly.
