Hello! I'd describe myself as dependable, compassionate, and patient. I've enjoyed working with children since high school, when I took Early Childhood Education classes and worked directly with preschoolers. Since then, I've held several caregiving positions providing one-on-one support and also worked in a school supporting children with autism. I love kids' energy, curiosity, and unique personalities, and I enjoy creating a safe, comfortable environment where they can have fun and be themselves. I take the responsibility of caring for someone's child seriously and value open communication and trust with the families I work with.
