About Erika

Experience: 3 yrs

Hi! I'm Erika, a compassionate and dependable caregiver with experience supporting children and families in healthcare and educational settings. I hold a bachelor's degree in Psychology with a minor in Education from Rowan University. I've worked as a Child Care Worker caring for children ages 1-6, helping manage routines, activities, and learning through play and positive interaction. Most recently, I worked as a Child Life Counselor in a partial hospitalization program, supporting children through emotional and behavioral challenges with patience and strong communication skills. I also have healthcare experience assisting with daily living activities, mobility support, meals, hygiene, and emotional care. I'm certified in BLS, Handle With Care, and QPR Suicide Prevention Training, and families describe me as patient, trustworthy, and caring.

we feel so lucky to have found erika. from the very beginning, she was kind, reliable, patient, and so loving with our daughter from 6 months all the way through the time she turned 3. as a parent, it’s not easy trusting someone with your little one, but she made us feel completely comfortable and at ease. she always showed up on time, communicated well, and truly treated our child like her own. it was obvious how much she genuinely cared, and our daughter absolutely adored her. she brought such a calm, positive energy into our home and was always attentive, engaging, and thoughtful. she adapted to any requests we had as far as her sleeping, eating, snacks, etc. i can honestly say she made such a difference for our family, and i would recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, trustworthy, and caring. we are so grateful for the time we had with her and will absolutely continue to stay in touch.
