- Comfortable with pets

I have extensive experience working with newborns, teens, and children with special needs for over 10 years. Throughout my career, I have achieved my skills and developed a deep understanding of the unique requirements and challenges associated with each age group. With newborns, I possess the knowledge and expertise to provide specialized care, ensuring their safety, comfort, and early development milestones are met. I also excel in establishing meaningful connections and providing guidance by fostering their emotional well-being and personal growth. Additionally, my experience with children with special needs has equipped me with the patience, adaptability, and specialized techniques necessary to offer compassionate care and create an inclusive environment. My diverse skill set, combined with a genuine love for children and a passion for their development, enables me to tailor my approach to meet the specific needs of each child, creating a nurturing and supportive atmosphere in which they can Read more thrive.
