Hello! My name is Lani and I'm an occupational therapist who just moved to Burlington, VT. I have 10+ years of experience as a nanny, personal aide, behavioral therapist, tutor, and camp counselor. I am comfortable working with individuals of all ages, learning abilities, and temperaments. I am especially passionate about working with kiddos, teens, and adults who have more complex cognitive, neurodevelopmental, motor, and/or emotional needs. In my spare time, I enjoy hiking with my English Lab, practicing yoga and meditation, doing amateur art, and baking gf/df treats. I am creative, resilient, flexible, outgoing, patient, and caring. Looking to help out 1-2 families or clients for occasional evenings and weekends. I will also have slightly more flexibility for mornings/afternoons during the month of October while I apply to OT jobs. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any more questions :)
