I have had over 10 years of babysitting experience working with children from ages 1 - 12 years old. I am CPR certified, first aid certified, and am a licensed Occupational Therapist who has extensive experience in the pediatric setting working with children with special needs. My knowledge and skills allow me to support families and help kids grow developmentally. I love learning from my kiddos and enjoy having such creative moments with them! I also love pets and have 2 of my own so can always care for and love them just as much! I'd be honored to care for and get to know your kiddo and family as a whole!
