'm a childcare provider with over 10 years of experience, including the past 8 years working in schools. I've worked with children of all ages, including those with special needs, and have a deep understanding of their unique developmental needs. I'm patient, calm, and creative, with a talent for helping children feel safe and supported. I believe in setting clear boundaries while encouraging learning through play. I also value open communication and will always keep you informed about your child's day. I'm flexible and happy to adapt to your family's schedule. Additionally, I've completed graduate coursework in child development to further support my work with children. I'm also happy to help with light cooking, cleaning, and pet care as needed. I'm reliable, detail-oriented, and committed to creating a smooth and supportive environment for your entire household.
Cuwani drove my son from his half day program to his after program summer camp during the summer. Cuwani treated my son very well and it was clear she cared very much for his safety and well being while he was in her care. My son has autism and is mostly non verbal, so it can be hard to find a caregiver I can trust to care for him, but Cuwani made me feel very comfortable. She was great!
