Hello, my name is Spring. I am a part-time photographer and full-time caregiver, devoted to my very large family, and fun-loving pets. With children, I've extensive experience with Autism and Down's syndrome. My skills range from emotional/physical/cognitive issues, bowel and bladder incontinence, bathing and dressing, tube feeding, meal prep/food allergies, and playtime/nurturing. My experience with adults has focused primarily on dementia/Alzheimer/end of life care. I've provided round the clock care, including meal prep and feeding, bathing, changing dressings/diapers, activities, meds, and everything in between. Additionally, I have experience with in-hospital companionship and end of life hospice care. I am a long time animal owner, and have worked for decades both fostering and caring for all manner of creatures. I am excited to learn new skills and methods of care, and am always looking to grow. I welcome the opportunity to meet and flourish with you and your loved ones.

    Spring was an absolute gift to my family at a critical transition point in our lives. My son is on the autism spectrum and exhibits a number of behaviors which come and go (some more extreme than others) and Spring handled him with grace, poise, compassion, kindness and empathy. She is warm, calm, patient and caring. Her heart for all people is big and generous and my children adored her. My son was very comfortable around her and after a few visits he let down his guard and trusted her presence, which is not an easy feat. My 9 year old dubbed her "the best sitter" after day 1. Spring is a gem and rarity; in a world where special needs sitters are hard to find, Spring really stands out. We could not be more blessed to have her in our lives!
