I'm a proud mom of two amazing teenagers, and through that journey, I've gained years of hands-on experience caring for children of all ages-from newborns and toddlers to pre-teens and teens. I understand the patience, creativity, and attention children need to feel loved and supported as they grow. Currently, I work as a Case Manager for a mental health clinic, where I provide therapeutic services to clients of all ages. About 40% of the individuals I support are children, including many with special needs. I lead engaging, calming activities such as art therapy, breathing exercises, and light yoga, helping kids build confidence and emotional resilience. Recently, I transitioned to working remotely, which has given me extra time-and I'd love to dedicate that time to caring for children, something I'm truly passionate about.
We’ve had the pleasure of having Linda with our family for the past 9 months, starting when our daughter was 15 months old. She has been an incredible part of our lives and an essential support during such an important stage of our daughter’s growth. Linda is loving, caring, and trustworthy. She takes feedback gracefully and is easy to work with, which has made our partnership feel seamless. Our daughter has truly flourished under Linda’s care—she has learned new skills, grown in confidence, and continues to thrive with Linda’s guidance and encouragement. Linda goes beyond basic caregiving; she engages our daughter in age-appropriate play, reading, outdoor activities, and learning opportunities that have contributed greatly to her development. She is patient, attentive to our daughter’s needs, and always ensures her safety and well-being. We feel so grateful for the bond Linda has built with our daughter and the positive, nurturing environment she’s created in our home. She has become a trusted part of our family, and we couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver during these formative years. We wholeheartedly recommend Linda to any family looking for someone dependable, compassionate, and deeply committed to children’s growth and happiness.
