With over 20 years of experience as both a babysitter and a special education teacher, I have had the privilege of working with children of all ages and abilities, including those with Autism, ADHD, Down syndrome, and sensory processing disorders. My background in special education, complemented by certifications in CPR, First Aid, and Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), equips me to provide exceptional, individualized care.
