I am a mother of two (3-year-old and 6-month-old) and a part time behavior analyst. I pride myself in being compassionate, caring, patient, and detail oriented. I grew up caring for young nieces and nephews and began babysitting in college. I have a Masters degree in Special Education with a specialization in Applied Behavior Analysis. I have worked directly in both a clinic and home setting with children who have autism and have had a passion for building strong foundations for children since I was young myself. I enjoy creating fun and age appropriate activities for children to engage in that target developmental milestones. I am looking to watch one child in my home, preferably around my daughter's age (3) to increase social interactions for both parties. My care will focus to increase functional play and communication skills. I work on building language through child motivation and work on using Read more basic sign language as well. I genuinely enjoy spending time with children and hope to become a trusted individual for your family! Care can include meals if you'd like. Additionally, being a parent who previously had their child in a daycare setting, I know the true value of strong communication regarding your child's day and will insure you have frequent updates on their day.
