Hi my name is Tanya. Single mom of two daughters 14 & 8 yrs old . I have been a special needs nanny/pca for 10+years. I am employed through 3 different agencies and have great references from 4 different families whom I have been with for years. I am a committed and reliable nanny that respects your family rules. I am a bit overprotective with my daughters and will do the same for yours. I am very attentive to needs, love going on outings, and I am very animated and silly. I am confident with all ages and have the mothers instinct that cannot be taught. I have patience with redirecting aggressive behaviors to fun and positive behaviors. I have experience with Low functioning autism, epileptic seizures, medication distribution, wheelchairs, positioning transfers, meal preparation, personal hygiene (bathing, diapering, toileting). I will do housework, drop-offs/pick-ups, shopping, laundry, dishes, etc.. I love outdoor adventures, I am energetic, responsible, and goofy to keep your little one(s) having fun. Being a mother myself I have experience and patience, but most of all I love what I do, will show up with a smile everyday.

    I would recommend Tanya as your caregiver. However, my child does not have special needs and she was very good with him. Tanya worked for us for about 2 months. We have a 1 year old. She's a fun, friendly and loving person, always keeping him busy and playing. When he slept she would do chores around the house to help me out. We only needed her help a short period of time but I would definitely recommend her to care for your child.
