Hello! My name is Kira, and I’m a dedicated and compassionate childcare provider with a strong background in working with children, particularly those with special needs. As a mother to a wonderful 7-year-old son with autism, I understand the unique challenges and rewards of caring for children with diverse needs. I have also worked as a special needs paraeducator, where I supported children with a variety of abilities and needs in the classroom setting. With this hands-on experience and personal understanding of the importance of tailored care, I offer specialized childcare services for children with autism, ADHD, developmental delays, and other special needs. My approach focuses on patience, structure, and creating a safe, nurturing environment where children can thrive. I am available during flexible hours to provide care for your child, especially during the hours when many parents need help the most—whether it’s during school hours, therapy sessions, or while Read more you manage your work commitments. I understand how crucial it is to find reliable, understanding care, especially for children with special needs, and I’m committed to offering that peace of mind to every family I work with. In addition to childcare, I offer engaging activities that are adapted to the individual needs of the children I care for. Whether it’s helping with schoolwork, assisting with self-care routines, or just providing a safe and fun environment, I’m here to support your family. I’m looking forward to connecting with families in need of a caring, experienced, and reliable special needs childcare provider. Feel free to reach out with any questions!
