CPR, first aid and safety care certified. 3 years experience with ASD. Providing compassionate care and engaging, accessible learning to children is my sacred work and how I care for my community and myself. In my experience working with children, I have learned that being mindful and tuning in to the needs of every child individually is the key to unlocking their potential as learners and members of the community. I believe in uplifting the individuality of children while teaching them to do the same for others in order to create a culture of compassion, mindfulness and consent. I connect with youth through patience and understanding. I am creative and find ways to connect with children through play, self expression, and affirmations in the form of positive self talk. I have experience working with a wide range of age groups and knowledge of age appropriate activities. My work is fueled by seeing children grow, thrive and experience success as well as overcome obstacles.

    Danielle has been an amazing caretaker for our ASD kiddo. She started working with us during Covid and has been a great support to all of us over the past couple of years. She's communicative, kind, flexible, fun, firm when needed, and responsible. You'd be lucky to have her!
