I have been working with kids since I was 14 years old. For nine years I worked in the Springfield Public Schools (Pre-K to High School) working as a Speech and Language Therapist and then went back to school to get my Masters in Applied Behavior Analysis. I love playing, teaching and supporting humans and helping them figure out the world and experience it in a positive way. I currently work school hours and am open to working afternoon, weekends and summer care hours. I also am a mother of four kids age ages 24-10. Also have two fur babies who love to snuggle. This leads me with skills to care for four legged friends as well.
