Caring for children with special needs is my passion. I am a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) with hands-on experience supporting children with autism and other developmental differences. I approach each child with patience, compassion, and creativity, making learning and play engaging through sensory activities, games, and structured routines adapted to their individual needs. I am CPR and First Aid certified, fluent in English and Spanish, and I value open communication with families to ensure consistency and trust. I am also confident in maintaining routines and household rules in a gentle, supportive way. With reliable transportation, flexibility, and a lifelong love for animals, I can also provide safe and caring support for pets in the home. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and joyful environment where every child feels understood, cared for, and empowered to thrive.
