I am a dedicated and reliable childcare provider with a passion for fostering children's growth and development. I have well over eight years of experience, ranging from infant and toddler care to child and adult special needs. My history in working as a caregiver involves a multitude of roles including, but not limited to, a long term nanny of three boys from infancy to school age (one diagnosed with ASD, one diagnosed with juvenile diabetes requiring multiple daily insulin shots and strict dietary needs), a para educater within the public elementary school system, in home early intervention services, and a direct support professional for a disabled middle aged adult. Furthermore, I have completed early childhood education coursework through NHTI, and cognitive behavioral and special needs specific training. I am dedicated to fostering a creative, nurturing and safe environment, full of adventurous ways to learn about the world through a variety of age appropriate experiences.
