I describe myself as a helper and lifelong caregiver. Even as a child, I loved caring for dolls and creating daily schedules full of fun activities for my little brother and me. I have a BA in Psychology from the University of Denver with an emphasis on human development. After raising my own two children, I spent three years as a full-time paid caregiver for a young child. My background also includes supporting children and young adults with developmental disabilities, special education, literacy intervention, in-home daycare, and most recently nannying an infant and toddler. I love getting to know kids as individuals-reading, exploring outside, going on outings, being creative and silly, and following their curiosity. I'm nurturing, reliable, organized and adaptable, and I value open communication and teamwork with parents. Most of all, I'm looking for the right fit-for me, your child, and your family!
