I love being a sitter because it allows me to make a meaningful impact on the lives of children and their families. I find joy in creating a safe, supportive, and fun environment where children can grow, learn, and feel valued. My experience includes working with children of all abilities, from those with autism and developmental needs to neurotypical children, in roles that range from caregiving to behavioral support. With a background in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), I bring specialized skills such as implementing behavior plans, fostering emotional regulation, and encouraging positive interactions. I have worked closely with families to create harmony within the household, tailoring my approach to meet the unique needs of each child. My training as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT), combined with my passion for music and the arts, allows me to engage children creatively while supporting their individual growth. I am committed to building trust, Read more fostering inclusivity, and ensuring that every child I care for feels supported and empowered to thrive.
