About Niki

I'm a mom to two girls, ages 9. 5 and 2. 5 living in Ukiah with over 23 yrs. of experience working with children in a variety of settings. I've worked as a lifeguard/swim instructor for an international aquatic facility in FL where I grew up. Upon moving to Sonoma County, I've worked as a teacher aide at a special ed school for 2+ years, working with students, ages 5 to 18. I've also worked with students as a special ed teacher aide with mild to severe disabilities, preschool to school aged for over 4 years. I also taught in kindergarten as a full inclusion aide for a student with cerebral palsy. I have 17 yrs of childcare experience for various families. I was a nanny for 5+ yrs for a family with 3 boys(including twins) and a nanny for 2 children, infancy-age 4 where I also brought my first daughter. In addition to my work experience, I'm very patient, creative, loving, organized and hard working. I find it very rewarding to care for others and enjoy the entire learning process.
