I am transitioning to a different career path but I loved my patients and their families and can't imagine not having that in my life anymore so would like to do part time care giving. I would love to help you transition your baby or newborn from hospital to home, do overnight care so you can get some much needed rest, and help with special needs. I am based in Soldotna but am happy to travel as far away as Wasilla. I am a NCC certified and licensed previous nurse with 9 years of experience with special needs infants and newborns. I also have one year adolescent mental health experience. Please contact me.
