I am a mother of three with a degree in education and over 15 years of experience working with young children. I have worked in a variety of settings including working as a teacher aide in early intervention and in an integrated preschool with children with special needs. Most recently I have worked as a lead infant/toddler teacher in a daycare center. As a teacher, I am passionate about helping each child to reach his or her full potential. As a caregiver I will give each child the care and attention I was able to give my own children when they were young.

    It's a privilege to recommend Joan. She is compassionate and completely trustworthy. She was wonderful working with my Son (2 years old) and had a lot of patience. Joan provided many daily activities to help us and even including some physical therapy (for orthotics). She was able to invoke change in our son's life in a short period of time. She was also a great help in social situations. We would like to thank Joan for her professionalism, support and true care that she demonstrates easily.
