I am an experienced, compassionate caregiver with over 20 years of experience caring for children from infancy through age 13. I have a nursing background, which allows me to provide safe, attentive, and knowledgeable care while supporting children's overall health and development. I also have experience caring for children on the autism spectrum and am comfortable supporting both typical childcare needs and special needs care. I take a patient, individualized approach, respecting each child's unique routines, communication style, and sensory needs while working closely with families for consistency and trust. I am a Spanish speaker, have excellent references, and a strong history of long-term placements. I am currently seeking a new family I can grow with and support as a dependable, nurturing caregiver.
