About Ro

About Me • I've worked with kids for 16 years, first as a nanny and most recently as an OTP. • I have experience supporting autistic kids, ADHDers, AuDHDers, kids with a PDA profile, and siblings/multiples. • I'm open to working with high support needs kids and can quickly learn your child's medical routines, mobility needs, accommodations, and communication style. • I'm happy to collaborate with your child's OT, PT, SLP, teachers, physicians, or other providers to support consistency across environments. Approach • My approach is neuro-affirming, child-led, and relationship-based. I focus on trust, self-advocacy, regulation, sensory needs, communication, and independence. • I believe all behavior is communication. Things I Love • Sensory-rich crafts (I come with a ridiculous amount of supplies!), creative play, movement, and outdoor adventures. • Animals of all kinds--pets are always a bonus! Logistics • Hamline-Midway area • Non-smoker • Bike/bus transportation • CPR/BLS certified
