I am a fun-loving, kind, and empathetic caregiver. I enjoy encouraging people from all walks of life. I hold to a belief that I can learn from all people and that everyone has something valuable to offer. I advocate for my clients and support them in their endeavors. I have over 8 years of experience caring for the elderly, 5 years of experience with special needs and 20 years of experience babysitting for children of all ages. I love to engage children in activities that stretch the imagination, learn about the world around them, and encourage their growth as a person. I love to engage people in their passions and also encourage them to try new things. I love to play, while still upholding professional boundaries. In my down time I enjoy spending time with my family, biking, camping, hiking, fishing, sewing, crafting, singing, dancing, and playing the guitar. I welcome any questions you may have and look forward to caring for your loved one.
