Hello. I am a former K-3rd grade teacher of many years. Since November of 2023, I have been working as a nanny and respite care provider for special needs children. I specialize in toddlers. I bring a backpack of crafts, games,and toys to engage young children and support development. Reading and singing is part of every visit. I recently began caring for an infant. I also have experience with children with Down Syndrome and autism. References are available upon request.
