My education in psychology reflects my naturally intuitive, sensitive nature. I am extremely patient, loving and caring. People tell me I'm a bright, positive energy probably due to theatre training which makes me fun and funny. Experienced meditator, highly present for my kids. I love children and children love me! Certified Health Coach. Babysitter since age 12. Five siblings. 12 nieces and nephews. I have a wealth of experience dealing with children of all ages and abilities, including my nephew with Tourette's/ADHD. I helped care for my 6-month-old Foster Sister for one year at the age of 14 and Nannied all throughout college. I taught dance to children & teens. Nursery School aide for 2 yrs. Trained docent for the Music 4 Minors program. Trained Baby Cuddler and Buddy Volunteer for Lucille Packard Children's Hospital at Stanford.
